Antique Peking Chinese Medallion Beige 1920s Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exquisite example of early 20th-century Chinese weaving captures the refined elegance characteristic of the Peking style. The design utilizes a restrained color palette, allowing the artistry of the central medallion and border to dominate the composition. The field is rendered in a luminous, soft beige, typical of fine ivory beige cream rugs from this period. The expansive, open field is minimally adorned with scattered floral sprigs, drawing the eye toward the striking central medallion. This circular motif, executed entirely in deep indigo and lighter blue tones, features traditional Chinese mythological creatures and stylized blossoms, providing a sharp contrast against the pale ground.
