Antique Chinese - Art Deco Room Size Wool Yellow Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional example of early 20th-century Chinese weaving embodies the transition to modern aesthetics, offering a generous room size rugs format ideal for grand interiors. The luxurious wool pile is saturated in a vibrant, variegated shade of yellow, providing a rich, luminous ground. This bold color choice, characteristic of the Art Deco period, allows the sparse, yet dramatic, botanical motifs—including peonies and a central butterfly—to stand in high relief against the expansive field. Framed by a stylized, curvilinear border featuring traditional Chinese cloud scrolls rendered in black, the design is highly asymmetrical.
