Antique Chinese - Peking Chinese Floral, Medallion Knotted Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exquisite piece exemplifies the refined artistry of early 20th-century Chinese weaving, a period highly sought after in the market for antique rugs. The design is characterized by its elegant simplicity, featuring traditional Chinese elements rendered with remarkable precision. The primary visual impact is achieved through the dramatic use of color. A deep, saturated indigo provides a rich, velvety ground for the design, making this a stunning example of blue color rugs. This expansive field is subtly interrupted only by a delicate, stylized circular medallion rendered in shimmering gold thread, drawing the eye without overwhelming the composition. The border system is complex, employing several guard stripes that frame the central navy panel.
