Meditation mat handwoven in Northern China during the early 20th century.
This rug features a minimalist design of two central flowers in deep blue squares, on a striated field of pinks, blues, and beiges, highlighting the beauty of the colors and the minimalism of the design. There is a small sacred seed symbol for "Ah" near the corner. Ah is an important mantra used in meditation.
