Antique Chinese - Peking Chinese Blue 1930s Blue Rug, Circa Date: 1930s. This exceptional example of early 20th-century Chinese weaving embodies the sophisticated aesthetic of the Peking style. The field is dominated by a rich, velvety indigo, achieved through masterful dyeing techniques, making it a stunning example of blue color rugs from the Art Deco period. The composition employs a decentralized, semi-open field, allowing the deep blue ground to breathe. Scattered floral sprays and large, circular floral wreaths create an elegant allover rugs effect, characteristic of the era's departure from traditional centralized formats. The motifs are rendered in contrasting tones of cream, tan, and pale blue, providing sharp definition against the saturated background.
