Antique Peking Chinese Medallion Navy 1920s Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional piece exemplifies the refined aesthetic of early 20th-century Chinese weaving, characterized by its restrained palette and sophisticated design geometry. It is a superb addition to any collection of antique rugs. The field is dominated by a rich, saturated navy blue, providing a dramatic backdrop for the sprawling central medallion. The use of varied shades of blue, from deep indigo to pale powder blue in the primary border, creates a striking monochromatic effect that is highly desirable among collectors seeking blue color rugs. The medallion itself is intricately filled with stylized acanthus leaves and scrolling vines, rendered in a lighter blue that subtly shifts the visual texture of the piece.
