1920s Knotted Rectangle Antique Room Size Chinese Wool Purple - Art Deco Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional Chinese Art Deco piece captures the exuberance of the Jazz Age, presenting a stunning field of rich purple, placing it among our finest examples of purple color rugs. The luxurious wool pile emphasizes the depth and saturation of the dye work, characteristic of the period's high standards. The design masterfully balances traditional Chinese iconography with the minimalist aesthetic of Art Deco. A central, open field is dramatically framed by cascading vines, butterflies, and stylized blossoms, making it a prime example of floral rugs from the early 20th century. The naturalistic yet bold rendering of the motifs avoids clutter, allowing the vibrant colors—including jade green and ochre yellow—to speak clearly.
