A wool pile of asymmetric knots on a cotton foundation. This ecru-sand ground room size has a design adapted from Ningxia pillar carpets, with a divided and rising dragon below, and a lambrequin above which is suspended from dao-ti monster masks. The dragon chases a flaming pearl, with supporting clouds. A truncated mountain rises below. The polychrome main border shows cloud heads and glancing rain, in the Yun-tsao Tou manner.
