China. Ming/Qing dynasty. Silk velvet, patterned in several colors and with metal threads. Sewn from two panels. The center with a large lotos flower (baoxiang) medallion from which large scrolled leafs are stretching into the field. In the corners each an arachaising dragon, the outer border with rain dragons grouped in pairs around flaming pearls. A border in between with square scrolls. At the four corners each an ornamental knot . 212 x 125cm. With turquoise blue lining. Condition B. Loose threads. Brittle at the border and damaged. This type of mat was used on wooden daybeds and on the heated kang in the palaces. They lent not only more comfort but where likewise a status symbol regarding the patterns, the colors and the value of the techniques and materials used. Velvet fabrics are per se expensive, here colored silks and metals threads have be added for patterns. Literature: -Spink & Son Ltd.: The Minor Arts of China. London, 1983. Compare no. 108.
