Antique Floral Wool Hand Knotted Pile Yellow 1920s Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional Chinese Art Deco carpet represents the height of early 20th-century design, blending traditional Far Eastern iconography with the bold, open compositions favored by Western collectors of antique rugs. The execution is precise, featuring a high-quality wool pile and the characteristic luminous sheen of this period's finest production. The central field is dominated by a shimmering, saturated yellow hue, providing a luxurious backdrop for the delicate, asymmetrical vine work. This rich tonality places the piece among the most desirable examples of yellow color rugs, offering warmth and luminosity that few other palettes can achieve. The expansive, uncluttered field is a hallmark of the Art Deco sensibility, allowing the subtle shifts in the yellow color to become a design element in itself.
