1890s Ivory Beige Cream White Rectangle Hand Knotted Pile Wool Antique Rug, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional late 19th-century example of Chinese weaving presents a beautifully restrained aesthetic, utilizing a luminous, expansive field to maximize the visual impact of its symbolic decoration. The soft, neutral ground establishes the rug as a prime example of ivory color rugs, providing a versatile foundation for any sophisticated interior. The composition is defined by its elegant negative space, allowing individual motifs to float freely across the surface. Central to the design is a complex geometric medallion, surrounded by scattered, finely rendered sprigs of blossoms, stylized birds, and circular medallions executed primarily in deep navy and subtle celadon blue.
