Antique Chinese - Art Deco Oversized Large Oversized Big Rug Wool Black, Country of Origin: China, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional piece exemplifies the transitional design period of the early 20th century, merging traditional Eastern iconography with modern Western aesthetics. Woven in the 1920s, this carpet is a superb example of Chinese rugs that were highly sought after by international designers. The dramatic composition is defined by its expansive field of deep, saturated wool, creating a striking backdrop characteristic of black color rugs. The design adheres to the minimalist principles of the art Deco style, featuring only four corner spandrels that depict stylized pagodas surrounded by blossoming trees. The sparing use of pale pink and ivory tones against the dark ground emphasizes the architectural clarity and graphic power of the motifs.
