Antique Art Deco Chinese Medallion Black 1930s Rug, Circa Date: 1930s. This striking example of Chinese Art Deco design captures the minimalist elegance favored during the interwar period. The strong contrast between the deep, saturated field and the crisp, ivory motifs makes it a standout piece among antique rugs. The dramatic use of a solid, uninterrupted field of black velvet pile provides a sophisticated backdrop for the geometric elements. This intentional negative space emphasizes the rug's architectural quality, offering a powerful statement piece that transcends traditional decorative styles. It is a superb specimen for collectors seeking black color rugs with high visual impact. The design is framed by a complex, stepped border executed in a bold, cream hue, reminiscent of the Greek Key or Meander pattern, which was highly popular in 1930s Western design.
