Antique Art Deco Chinese Floral, Medallion Blue Navy, Yellow 1920s Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional example of Chinese Art Deco weaving captures the transitional aesthetic of the period, moving away from traditional forms toward a more stylized, open composition. The dramatic use of negative space and highly saturated color palettes defines its modernity. Such pieces are highly sought after among collectors of antique rugs. The striking palette is defined by a luminous, saturated yellow field, providing a brilliant backdrop for the delicate, naturalistic motifs. This warmth is framed by a broad, deep navy border, creating a dramatic visual tension characteristic of the era. The secondary accents of rose, pale blue, and purple enhance the complexity of the design against the rich blue navy ground.
