Antique Ivory Open Field Chinese Deco Knotted Wool Pile Area Rug

Antique Chinese Chinese Allover Floral Knotted Rug, Country of Origin: China, Circa Date: 1920s. This remarkable example of early 20th-century weaving captures the transitional elegance characteristic of Chinese rugs from this period. The design eschews traditional medallion structures in favor of a highly open, naturalistic composition, reflecting the global shift toward Art Deco aesthetics while retaining classical Asian symbolism. The expansive central field is rendered in a luminous, softly shifting tone of ivory and cream, providing a perfect counterpoint to the saturated, wide berry-red border. This sophisticated color palette allows the delicate, meandering branches to float across the surface with exceptional clarity.
