Antique Peking Chinese Medallion Blue 1920s Blue Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional Chinese Peking carpet from the early Republican period showcases the restrained elegance characteristic of the era. The expansive field is saturated in a deep, luxurious indigo, offering a sophisticated foundation that places it among the finest examples of blue color rugs. The design centers on a subtle, finely rendered medallion composed of stylized peonies and scrolling foliage. This central motif, along with the corner spandrels, utilizes a palette of soft cream and muted sage green, providing a gentle contrast against the saturated ground. Such pieces are highly sought after by collectors of refined antique rugs. A delicate, meandering border frames the composition, featuring continuous vines interspersed with circular and octagonal cartouches.
