Antique Chinese Floral Medallion Hand Knotted Pile Rug, Circa Date: 1900s. This exquisite piece exemplifies the refined aesthetic of Chinese rugs from the turn of the century. The composition features a central, stylized floral medallion set against a luminous field. The palette is carefully balanced, utilizing deep indigo borders to frame the lighter core. The field color is a rich, warm beige, moving toward a soft gold—a departure from stark white, offering immediate warmth to any space. This desirable shade is often sought after in our collection of ivory and beige rugs. The wool pile is dense and expertly hand-knotted, a testament to the enduring craftsmanship of this period. The primary motif is a large, multi-petaled peony or lotus, rendered in muted pinks and soft greens, symbolizing prosperity and honor.
