Antique Chinese - Peking Medium Wool Ivory Rug, Country of Origin: China, Circa Date: 1920s. This exquisite piece represents the finest weaving traditions of the early 20th century. Its sophisticated palette and elegant composition make it a prime example of high-quality antique rugs. The medium wool pile provides a luxurious texture, while the expansive, luminous ivory field dominates the composition. This preference for negative space is a hallmark of the peking style, allowing the subtle elegance of the design elements—a central floral spray and scattered corner motifs—to truly resonate. A dramatic contrast is achieved through the deep indigo border, which frames the composition. This border features meticulously rendered floral sprays and scrolling vines, executed in harmonious tones of teal, soft blue, and ochre.
