Blue Antique Rectangle 1920s Wool Hand Knotted Pile Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional example of a 1920s textile showcases the restrained elegance typical of the period. Its generous dimensions make it a desirable room size rug (9.02ft x 11.06ft), perfectly suited for anchoring a sophisticated living space. The central field is dominated by a rich, saturated indigo, providing a dramatic backdrop for the delicate motifs. This masterful use of a deep blue color creates a sense of depth and tranquility. Scattered across the expanse are individual sprays of flowers, vases, and symbolic branches, rendered in subtle gold and cream tones. A wide, contrasting border in camel and tan frames the composition, featuring cartouches and corner spandrels filled with traditional Chinese iconography, including stylized floral elements and auspicious symbols.
