Rectangle Wool 1900s Antique Hand Knotted Pile Blue Floral Rug, Circa Date: 1900s. This exceptional hand-knotted piece from the early 20th century exemplifies the refined aesthetic of Chinese Peking production. The deep indigo field provides a dramatic backdrop for the stylized landscape and architectural elements rendered in soft ivory and lighter shades of blue color rugs. Unlike typical medallion formats, this rug features a compelling pictorial design, often associated with Chinoiserie wallpaper or porcelain. The central field depicts floating islands, stylized pagodas, and small sailing vessels, creating a sense of tranquil movement. The sophisticated border employs delicate scrolling vines and floral rugs motifs, framing the scene with subtle elegance. Crafted from high-quality wool pile, the texture is rich and enduring, characteristic of fine early 1900s weaving.
