介绍（中）	这是一个很好的例子，一种在西藏广泛使用的内蒙古马鞍地毯。它以其吸引人的设计、鲜艳的色彩和良好的条件而闻名。它似乎来自内蒙古著名的地毯制造中心包头绥远地区这是一种长方形的鞍下地毯，向中间变窄，末端呈圆形。它由两个对称的两半在中心缝合而成。有四个内衬矩形孔，用于双围带，中心两侧各有两个。主场地的对称设计采用了一个中央品纹奖章，上面和下面有两个花枝。主场地被狭窄的虚线内边界和更宽的外边界包围，外边界充满了风格化的吉祥符号和花朵。场地为浅红色，边界为深蓝色，图案为黄绿色、浅蓝色、白色和紫色。边缘在一侧有轻微的缺口，以指示地毯应面向马后部的一侧。这种地毯有机器制造的棉经纱、棉纬纱（可能是手工纺的）和打结的羊毛堆。根据颜色和褪色图案，一些染料看起来是合成的，这适合这个时期。
介绍（英）	This is a good example of an Inner Mongolian under saddle rug of a type that was widely used in Tibet. It is notable for its attractive design, vibrant colors, and good condition. It appears to have come from the Baotou-Suiyuan area, a renowned rug making center in Inner Mongolia. This is an oblong under saddle rug that narrows towards the middle and has rounded ends. It is made of two symmetrical halves stitched together at the center. There are four lined rectangular holes for double girth straps, two on either side of the center. The symmetrical design of the main field features a central fretwork medallion with two floral sprigs above and below. The main field is surrounded by a narrow dotted inner border and a wider outer border filled with stylized auspicious symbols and floral blossoms. The field is light red, the borders dark blue and the designs yellowish green, light blue, white and violet. The border is notched slightly on one side to indicate the side of the rug that should face the rear of the horse. The rug has machine-made cotton warp yarns, cotton wefts (probably hand spun) and a knotted wool pile. Based on color and fading pattern, some of the dyes appear to be synthetic, which is appropriate for this period.
