Blue Floral Antique Chinese Peking Oval Room Size Area Rug

Wool Hand Knotted Pile Blue 1920s Floral Oval Antique Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exquisite piece captures the height of the Chinese Art Deco weaving tradition, characterized by its open field and dramatic, asymmetrical composition. The elegant Oval design relies heavily on naturalistic elements, making it a superb example of floral rugs from the period. The luxurious, deep indigo ground provides a striking contrast to the delicate, stylized branches and blossoms. This saturated hue, often referred to as midnight blue, elevates the piece beyond mere floor covering into a statement of artistry. Collectors seeking dramatic depth often gravitate toward blue color rugs that utilize such rich, uniform fields to highlight complex imagery. Hand-knotted from fine wool, the pile retains a wonderful sheen, emphasizing the subtle shifts in tone across the carved, raised motifs.
