Auspicious Clouds
6 feet×8.27 feet
Re-created by Caravan Classics in 2008. The original piece comes from the Kangxi Period (bottom left).
The dark-blue field is deep and rich in abrash, resembling the sky and the ocean, giving it a sense of space.
The tea-colored Ruyi clouds tilted at two ends, naive and vivid, feel floating against the field.
The gray-brown outmost border is a characteristic of Kangxi carpets.
