Chinese Rectangle 1900s Blue Knotted - Peking Antique Wool Room Size Rug, Circa Date: 1900s. This exceptional example of early 20th-century Chinese weaving represents the refined aesthetic of Peking production. Its provenance places it among the most sought-after antique rugs of the period, characterized by high-quality wool and dense knotting that speaks to superior craftsmanship. The rug is defined by its striking palette, centered on a luxurious, near-navy deep blue field. This saturated tone provides a dramatic backdrop for the secondary colors—soft ivory, pale gold, and lighter shades of cerulean—which illuminate the intricate design elements and lend the piece a remarkable depth and visual resonance suitable for formal settings. The composition features a sparsely decorated field, allowing the central circular medallion and the corner spandrels to command attention.
