Antique Chinese - Art Deco Multicolor 1920s Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional piece represents the pinnacle of early 20th-century design, merging traditional Chinese weaving techniques with the radical aesthetics emerging from Europe. It is a stunning example among antique rugs that define the Art Deco period, showcasing a bold departure from classical motifs. The palette is intensely modern, utilizing striking contrasts of deep teal, saturated rust orange, ochre, and stark black.

The composition is a masterful study in abstraction.
