Antique Rare Large Size Art Deco Chinese Floral Hand Knotted Rug

Antique Large Chinese - Art Deco Chinese Floral Knotted Rug, Circa Date: 1925. This exceptional piece captures the height of the Art Deco movement in China, where traditional weaving techniques merged seamlessly with the bold, graphic aesthetics of the 1920s. The design eschews classical symmetry for a dynamic, modern composition, making it a prime example of antique rugs from the period. The primary field is dominated by an exuberant, overgrown border of stylized flowers and deep green foliage, rendered in rich, saturated hues of plum, crimson, and olive. These dramatic, oversized floral motifs create a sense of lush, almost tropical abundance, contrasting sharply with the reserved taupe ground that anchors the entire composition. A unique, scalloped frame defines the central panel, providing a quiet visual respite from the surrounding botanical intensity.
