Hand Knotted Pile Floral Rectangle Antique 1920s Wool Large Blue Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This remarkable example of Art Deco design exemplifies the transitional style that defined the era, blending traditional Eastern craftsmanship with modern Western sensibilities. As one of our finest antique rugs, its visual impact is immediate and commanding. The dramatic composition is centered around an expansive deep blue field, a saturated indigo hue that provides a perfect backdrop for the sparse, elegant detailing. The masterful use of negative space allows the rich color and luxurious wool pile to speak for themselves, a characteristic hallmark of high-quality Chinese Art Deco weaving. A wide, luminous gold border frames the central field, adorned with delicate, trailing vines, hanging baskets, and stylized vases rendered in subtle pinks, reds, and greens.
