Antique Peking Chinese Floral Blue, Ivory Beige Cream White 1920s Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exquisite example of Chinese Art Deco weaving captures the sophisticated aesthetic of the era. The vast central field is rendered in a warm, muted ivory and beige, featuring a subtle tone-on-tone floral pattern that speaks to the quality of these antique rugs. The field's restrained palette allows the intricate border design to truly command attention. The overall composition relies on a delicate interplay between the soft cream ground and the vibrant accents of the pictorial border, which utilizes striking shades of blue color rugs alongside earthy browns and tans to depict a traditional landscape scene. The wide, complex border presents a panoramic view of Chinese scenery, complete with stylized mountains, weeping willows, and small pagodas.
