Many aspects of Chinese carpets make them stand out against the vast stylistic panorama of Oriental carpets. In fact, Chinese carpets are immediately identifiable because of these singular aspects, beginning with their decorative motifs, which appear suspended on the field, unattached to one another and without strong outlines.
The palette is restricted and neither lively nor contrasting; it is limited to six basic tints and all their various shadings, and these colours are used in accordance with a singular sensitivity directed at creating harmonious and delicate arrangements dominated by yellow and blue.
Finally, the style employed does not show the usual and insurmountable discrimination between the geometric language and the floral but lives in a happy medley of the two.
