1920s Rectangle Blue Small Scatter Size Antique Knotted Wool Chinese - Peking Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional piece represents the height of early 20th-century Chinese weaving, characterized by a shift towards simpler, more elegant designs favored by Western markets. As a fine example of antique rugs, its quality wool and expert knotting ensure lasting value and durability. The field is dominated by a deep, sophisticated slate hue, perfectly complemented by a slightly darker, solid border, creating a harmonious tonal effect. This restrained use of color is typical of the refined Peking style of the period, offering a versatile foundation for any interior design scheme seeking blue color rugs. Central to the composition is a singular, powerful medallion—a stylized rendition of the traditional Chinese Shou symbol for longevity.
