Antique Peking Chinese Allover Floral Ivory 1930s Rug, Circa Date: 1930s. This exquisite example of early 20th-century Chinese weaving presents a delicate balance of traditional motifs and the emerging Art Deco aesthetic. The expansive field is rendered in a soft, luminous ivory color, providing a perfect backdrop for the scattered botanical elements. The allover pattern features stylized, detached leaves and blossoms, executed in contrasting shades of deep indigo and pale turquoise. While seemingly random, the arrangement subtly adheres to classical Chinese design principles, often incorporating elements that function as protective symbols against negative energy, lending depth to its decorative appeal. The composition is framed by a sophisticated triple border system.
