Antique Chinese - Art Deco Room Size Wool Manchester Yellow Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional example of early 20th-century Chinese weaving captures the bold aesthetic of the Art Deco movement. The expansive field is dominated by the rich, luminous hue known as manchester Yellow, a color prized for its depth and velvety texture, providing a dramatic contrast to the deep indigo and royal blue accents. The composition is defined by a striking central medallion featuring a stylized eagle, framed by stylized blossoms. The field remains largely open, allowing the saturated color to shine, punctuated only by carefully placed, delicate floral sprays that trail gracefully from the inner guard border, emphasizing the rug's verticality.
