1930s Rectangle Antique Chinese - Peking Knotted Small Scatter Size Wool Ivory Rug, Circa Date: 1930s. This exceptional Chinese Peking piece captures the refined elegance of the early 20th century, offering an aesthetic highly sought after among collectors of antique rugs. The quality of the wool and the clarity of the knotting speak to the high standards maintained by weavers during this period. The composition centers on a remarkably clean field of ivory color, which provides a striking contrast to the saturated indigo and cobalt blue used in the detailed motifs. This classic Peking palette emphasizes serenity and balance, utilizing negative space to allow the delicate floral sprays and butterflies to float gracefully across the surface. The structure of the design features a subtle central medallion surrounded by scattered blossoms, all framed by a complex, curvilinear border.
