Antique Chinese - Art Deco Room Size Wool Yellow Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional example of early 20th-century Chinese weaving captures the dramatic aesthetic of the Art Deco period. The scale of this piece is particularly noteworthy, presenting an impressive room size format designed to anchor a sophisticated interior space. The central field is rendered in a rich, burnished yellow, a hue that shifts beautifully with the light, providing a luxurious foundation for the sparse ornamentation. This vibrant tone, characteristic of yellow color rugs, is dramatically framed by a wide border of deep magenta or plum, a pairing highly favored in the Art Deco export market. The ornamentation adheres to the simplified, naturalistic style of the era.
