1900s Wool Blue Antique Oval Hand Knotted Pile Floral Rug, Circa Date: 1900s. This exceptional piece is a hallmark of early 20th-century Chinese weaving, presenting a sophisticated, elegant oval form rarely seen in antique rugs. The deep indigo field provides a dramatic backdrop for the subtle, tone-on-tone vine work that fills the central space. The masterful use of color defines this textile. A rich, saturated midnight blue dominates the central medallion, perfectly complemented by the soft, buttery beige of the main border. This elegant contrast makes it a superb example among blue color rugs, offering depth and tranquility to any interior space seeking a restrained yet powerful aesthetic. The design employs classic Chinese motifs, featuring stylized scrolling vines and blooming lotus flowers rendered in muted tones of pale blue and gold.
