Antique Large Chinese - Art Deco Allover Floral Knotted Rug

Antique Large Chinese - Art Deco Allover Floral Knotted Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional piece exemplifies the sophisticated transition in textile design during the early 20th century, merging traditional Chinese craftsmanship with the bold, modern aesthetics of the Art Deco movement. As a striking example among antique rugs, its execution is both delicate and commanding. The expansive central field is rendered in a sublime, variegated tone of soft sage, characteristic of premium green color rugs from this period. This muted backdrop allows the intricate, trailing floral vines to flourish, creating a sense of depth and tranquility that defines the rug's overall aesthetic. Richly colored blossoms—including deep purples, rose pinks, and ochre yellows—spill across the corners, anchored by stylized vases and branches that suggest a Chinoiserie influence.
