Chinese Antique Knotted Room Size Blue Wool Rectangle 1920s – Art Deco Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional Chinese Art Deco piece, dating to the 1920s, presents a sophisticated blend of traditional Eastern motifs and geometric Western influence. Its substantial dimensions qualify it as one of our premier room size rugs, perfectly suited to anchor a grand interior space.
The field is dominated by a rich, saturated indigo hue, characteristic of the finest examples from this period. This deep tone provides a dramatic backdrop for the sprawling, naturalistic vine and flower elements. Collectors seeking pieces defined by their striking primary palette will appreciate this exemplary addition to our collection of blue color rugs.
Stylized chrysanthemums, peonies, and various foliage are scattered across the composition, rendered in warm tones of rust, gold, and soft pinks. Although the design is open, the dense arrangement of the trailing flora creates the visual effect of allover rugs, ensuring visual interest across the entire surface without relying on a central medallion.
A powerful geometric border, featuring the classic Greek key or meander motif executed in contrasting gold and navy, frames the central design, lending a structural formality typical of the Art Deco era. This piece represents the high quality and artistic innovation found among the most sought-after antique rugs of the early 20th century.
