1920s Blue Hand Knotted Pile Wool Rectangle Antique Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This magnificent example of a 1920s Chinese production rug is defined by its luxurious hand knotted pile wool construction and its commanding presence.

The central motif is a finely rendered circular medallion depicting a stylized tree of life, inhabited by a graceful bird, executed in shimmering gold and soft blue tones. This central element is meticulously detailed, offering a striking contrast against the expansive, monochromatic field, ensuring the piece maintains visual depth without sacrificing its elegant simplicity.
