1920s Antique Rectangle Red Hand Knotted Pile Wool Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This magnificent example of early 20th-century weaving represents the height of Chinese Art Deco production, a period highly sought after in the market for antique rugs. The dense wool pile and expert hand-knotting ensure both luxurious texture and lasting durability. The commanding field is rendered in a saturated, deep red hue, featuring a rich red color. This vibrant ground provides a striking contrast to the broad border, a signature aesthetic utilized by master weavers of the era to appeal to Western interior design trends. The design employs a naturalistic, open-field composition, featuring gracefully trailing vines, blossoming peonies, and stylized floral sprays emanating from a central vase motif.
