Antique Art Deco Chinese Floral Blue Navy 1920s Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional Chinese Art Deco piece captures the transition between traditional Eastern motifs and the streamlined Western aesthetic of the 1920s. Such finely preserved examples are highly sought after by collectors of antique rugs. The saturated navy field dominates the composition, lending the rug a profound depth characteristic of the finest blue color rugs. This rich background is sparsely populated with delicate floating floral sprays, drawing the eye toward the magnificent border. The use of deep indigo and midnight hues is characteristic of high-quality Chinese production from this period. The wide border is a masterpiece of naturalistic design, featuring lush, trailing vines laden with peonies, chrysanthemums, and cherry blossoms rendered in shades of rose, gold, mauve, and soft teal.
