Chinese 1920s Blue - Peking Rectangle Small Scatter Size Knotted Wool Antique Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional example of early 20th-century Chinese weaving is defined by its dramatic, saturated indigo field, a hallmark of the finest blue color rugs from the Peking region. The composition eschews traditional central medallions for a sophisticated, asymmetrical landscape vignette, rendered in muted tones of tan, rust, and pale blue against the profound depth of the main field. This scenic depiction incorporates stylized trees and clouds, characteristic of traditional Chinese floral rugs and art. Knotted entirely in high-quality wool, the rug's deep pile and rich color palette speak to the luxury standards of the era.
