1900s Rectangle Hand Knotted Pile Blue Antique Wool Rug, Circa Date: 1900s. This stunning piece, originating from the early 20th century, exemplifies the refined aesthetic of Chinese Peking weaving. The composition features a deep, saturated indigo field, serving as a dramatic canvas for the scattered arrangement of auspicious symbols and decorative vessels. As a classic example of antique rugs, its wool pile retains a beautiful, soft patina indicative of its age and quality craftsmanship. The central design element is a striking circular medallion rendered in rich aubergine and tan, filled with stylized vases and blooming branches. Surrounding this centerpiece, the field is peppered with individual motifs—vases, fans, and scholar's objects—all executed in contrasting camel and pale blue tones.
