Antique Geometric Medallion Wool Hand Knotted Pile Blue 1930s Rug, Circa Date: 1930s. This exceptional example of early 20th-century Chinese weaving showcases the sophisticated blend of traditional motifs and the emerging Art Deco aesthetic. The expansive field is rendered in a serene, faded blue color, providing a perfect backdrop for the intricate medallion work. The field is subtly textured with a continuous, interlocking fretwork pattern, classifying it among fine geometric rugs that prioritize textural depth over overt pictorialism. Centered within this complex lattice are five magnificent circular medallions, each depicting highly stylized mythical creatures rendered in rich gold and navy tones, characteristic of the period's refined palette. Hand-knotted from high-quality wool, this piece exhibits the robust construction and durability expected of authentic antique rugs.
