Antique Peking Room Size Wool Ivory Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exquisite piece exemplifies the refined aesthetic of early 20th-century Chinese weaving, characterized by its generous dimensions suitable for a room size rug. The soft, luminous wool pile provides a luxurious foundation for the sparse, elegant design. The expansive field is rendered in a rich, warm ivory color, which has mellowed beautifully over the last century, achieving a desirable patina. Scattered across this luminous expanse are delicate, stylized floral sprays executed primarily in deep indigo and pale blue, creating a sense of tranquility and open space around a modest central medallion. A striking contrast is established by the wide, midnight blue border, which frames the composition with precision.
