Antique Chinese - Peking Small Scatter Size Wool Multicolor Rug, Circa Date: 1900s. This exceptional Peking weaving captures the transitional aesthetic of early 20th-century Chinese textile art. The design is dominated by a striated field of alternating navy and taupe bands, creating a powerful, almost kinetic visual texture, making it a compelling example among antique rugs. Centered within this dynamic field is a circular cartouche featuring a highly abstracted landscape, rendered in deep indigo and subtle earth tones. This motif, perhaps depicting mountains or a village scene, offers a moment of traditional pictorial representation against the otherwise modern, linear backdrop. Given its narrow dimensions, this piece functions beautifully as one of the finest small scatter size rugs, ideal for entryways or beside a bed.
