Antique Chinese - Art Deco Small Scatter Size Wool Ivory Ivory Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exquisite piece exemplifies the bold, graphic aesthetic of the Art Deco movement as interpreted by master Chinese weavers. The deep, saturated black ground provides a dramatic contrast to the central ivory field, a signature color palette of the period that emphasized clean lines and modern simplicity. The highly stylized and symmetrical floral design features lush sprays of forget-me-nots and elongated foliage rendered in striking shades of cobalt and muted teal. These stylized botanical elements frame the central medallion, creating a dynamic, mirrored composition that is both decorative and highly sophisticated. The use of negative space is critical to the rug's overall visual impact.
