Description
1920s Chinese Art Deco Carpet ( 7' 10'' x 9' 7'' - 238 x 292 )
Floral Wool Rectangle Hand Knotted Pile Blue 1920s Antique Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional piece exemplifies the sophisticated design principles of early 20th-century weaving, characterized by a striking, open composition. The delicate, naturalistic branches and blossoms classify this as one of our finest examples of floral rugs.
The central field is rendered in a saturated, near-midnight blue color, providing a dramatic contrast to the wide, rich crimson border. This strategic use of negative space allows the intricate, multi-hued blossoms to appear almost suspended against the deep backdrop, emphasizing their delicate structure and vibrant coloration.
The hand-knotted wool pile offers a luxurious texture suitable for high-traffic areas. Its generous dimensions ensure that this magnificent textile functions perfectly as a room size anchor for a sophisticated interior. The pattern avoids strict symmetry, favoring instead the organic flow of a blossoming branch that gracefully trails inward from the frame.
Woven during the 1920s, this rug reflects the transitional period when traditional Eastern motifs were simplified and stylized to appeal to Western Art Deco tastes. The quality of the knotting and the enduring vibrancy of the dyes confirm its status as a highly desirable example of antique rugs craftsmanship, perfect for the discerning collector.
