Chinese Knotted - Art Deco Rectangle Antique Wool Purple 1920s Room Size Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional example of Chinese Art Deco weaving represents a pinnacle of early 20th-century design, blending traditional Eastern iconography with the bold, modern aesthetics of the West. As one of our finest antique rugs, its condition and saturation are remarkable given its age and provenance. The dramatic field is rendered in a highly saturated, regal tone, making it one of our most striking purple color rugs, perfectly contrasted by the wide, dark border. This daring use of color is characteristic of the period, demonstrating the shift away from muted, traditional palettes toward high-impact, decorative statements suitable for modern interiors.
