About the Item

A sweet petite 19th century Chinese Peking rug with a simple "double happiness' character woven in dark indigo in the center and with Fu characters in each corner. The double happiness character is commonly found on gifts given to couples on their wedding day, while the Fu character symbolizes good fortune. It's likely that this rug was woven as a gift for a newlywed couple and meant to bestow on them health and good fortune.
