Antique Floral Wool Hand Knotted Pile Blue 1920s Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional example of early 20th-century Chinese Art Deco weaving features the characteristic open field and dramatic use of negative space, emphasizing the delicate floral rugs that define the composition. The central field is dominated by a rich, saturated indigo, creating a striking contrast against the vibrant pinks, blues, and golds used for the sparse ornamentation. This deep hue places it among the most sought-after blue color rugs from the period, providing a sophisticated foundation for any interior space. A stylized bird, likely a phoenix, perches gracefully on a flowering branch, rendered with meticulous detail and a luxurious, high pile. The superb condition and clarity of design confirm its status as a fine example among high-quality antique rugs of the Art Deco era.
