However, this rug has been knotted in \u003cb\u003eChina\u003c\/b\u003e. Probably rugs became known very early in \u003cb\u003eChina\u003c\/b\u003e. The invasion of the Mongols around 1279, who not only carried Central Asian rugs with them, but also used rugs as tents and saddlery, boosted local production, which probably already existed at that time. An exhibition in Saint Louis (USA) in 1903 sparked an interest in Chinese rugs among the Western world. Soon afterwards, rugs were produced in China solely for export to Europe and North America.\n\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cbr\/\u003e\nThis saddle cover emphasizes the \u003cb\u003eoriginal function\u003c\/b\u003e of hand-knotted rugs. Presumably it was used as padding or saddle cover for horseback riding.  This antique Saddle Cover is a collector's item. It is \u003cb\u003eabout 120 years old\u003c\/b\u003e and, therefore, a really special piece. Antique rugs like this Saddle Cover are still very popular and are sold at top prices by renowned auction houses.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cb\u003ePatterns\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e The luxuriant \u003cb\u003eflower motifs\u003c\/b\u003e of this Saddle Cover are elegant and varied.

For the production of high quality Chinese rugs the coat of the Tibetan goat is used. The knot density is, as is typical in Chinese rugs, relatively low and the pile is shorn long. \n\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cbr\/\u003e\nWool is obtained through the gentle shearing of sheep. Virgin wool is a sustainable, natural raw material with a number of impressive properties: Due to wool's natural fat content, the surface repels water droplets and is thus naturally impervious to dirt. Wool also offers excellent thermal insulation, has a regulating effect on the indoor climate and muffles sound. The weft and warp threads of this Saddle Cover are made of \u003cb\u003ecotton\u003c\/b\u003e. This versatile material is tear-resistant and stretchable and, therefore, ideal for a durable backing fabric.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Zomorrodi Teppiche","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32255646335069,"sku":"2566","price":2770.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2298\/8523\/products\/2566_gesamt_bfd5eba9-b992-4f98-8db2-19f9abad5e89.jpg?v=1586921374","url":"https:\/\/www.zomorrodi-teppiche.de\/en-de\/products\/antiker-chinesischer-sattelbezug-teppich-125-x-57-2566","provider":"Zomorrodi Teppiche","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
