Antique Chinese - Baotou Hallway Runner Wool Red Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional example of early 20th-century Chinese weaving presents the classic Baotou aesthetic, characterized by its deep, saturated color palette and precise symbolic geometry. Its long, narrow dimensions make it an ideal choice among hallway runner rugs for guiding the eye through an extended space. The wool foundation is dyed in a striking combination of rich navy blue and a vibrant, almost electric red field. This specific hue places the piece among the most desirable red color rugs from the period, offering warmth and contrast simultaneously. The contrast is further heightened by the use of soft cream and gold accents defining the intricate interior borders.
