Dragon Rug

Description

This vibrant mid-century Tibetan textile features a majestic golden dragon, its serpentine body undulating dynamically across a deep midnight-blue field. A potent symbol of protection, power, and wisdom in Himalayan iconography, the five-clawed dragon is traditionally associated with imperial strength and spiritual energy.

Surrounding the dragon are auspicious Buddhist symbols—clouds, ritual objects, and elemental motifs—woven in bold tones of crimson, turquoise, coral, and saffron. The composition is both symbolic and energetic, drawing the viewer’s eye along the fluid motion of the dragon’s coiled form.

Hand-knotted from dyed wool, the piece retains its rich color saturation and textural depth, making it ideal as a dramatic wall hanging, ceremonial runner, or focal point in any interior celebrating textile tradition and mythic storytelling.

Condition: Good condition.
