Antique Chinese - Peking Chinese Allover Floral Blue 1920s Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional example of early 20th-century weaving presents the refined elegance characteristic of Peking production. The design is a sophisticated study in contrast, utilizing a deep, saturated indigo field, a classic choice among blue color rugs, to highlight the delicate, scattered floral elements. The field features an airy, allover arrangement of stylized blossoms, vines, and symbolic vases rendered in a luminous gold hue. This open composition allows the rich texture of the wool pile to dominate, creating a sense of quiet luxury. Such pieces are highly sought after by collectors of fine antique rugs. A substantial border frames the central design, repeating the gold coloration and incorporating continuous scrolling vines and larger, more formal floral sprays.
