Antique Floral Medallion Wool Hand Knotted Pile Gray 1920s Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional example of early 20th-century weaving presents a sophisticated study in muted color and expansive scale. The hand-knotted wool construction speaks to the enduring quality of antique rugs from this period, offering both visual depth and tactile luxury. The commanding field is rendered in a deep, lustrous slate, providing a perfect backdrop for the sparse, elegant ornamentation. The use of a rich gray color is highly characteristic of the Art Deco influence beginning to permeate Chinese weaving traditions, moving away from traditional bright palettes toward more sophisticated, architectural tones. Centered within the expansive field is a beautifully composed floral medallion, rendered in soft blues, creams, and blush tones.
