1920s Knotted Ivory Chinese Wool Rectangle Antique - Peking Small Scatter Size Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exquisite piece represents the height of early 20th-century Chinese weaving, characterized by its luxurious wool pile and sophisticated palette. It is a prime example of the high-quality antique rugs produced during the Republican Era, blending traditional motifs with Art Deco sensibilities. While designated as an ivory color rug in historical records, the field presents a deeply saturated, yet softened, taupe-brown ground, providing a rich backdrop for the stylized floral elements. Accents of faded rose and cream highlight the central medallions, demonstrating the subtle, nuanced dyeing techniques favored by Peking weavers of the period.
