Antique Chinese - Art Deco Chinese Allover Floral Blue 1920s Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional example of Art Deco Chinese weaving represents a pivotal moment in textile history, blending traditional Eastern motifs with the bold, graphic sensibilities of the Jazz Age. As one of our finest antique rugs, its design transcends mere decoration, offering a piece of woven history. The composition is anchored by a dramatically saturated field of deep indigo, providing a luxurious backdrop for the sprawling botanical elements. This intense, almost velvety blue color rugs palette is sharply contrasted by the wide, luminous border rendered in a rich, burnished gold. A thin, vibrant band of fuchsia separates the field from the main border, adding a crucial layer of visual depth.
