Ivory Floral Antique Room Size Chinese Wool Pile Hand Knotted Rug

Antique Chinese Chinese Floral Knotted Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exquisite example of early 20th-century Chinese weaving presents a highly decorative, open design characteristic of the period. The expansive, luminous ivory ground provides a perfect canvas for the finely detailed motifs scattered across the field. The composition features traditional Chinese symbols, including stylized butterflies, elegant vases overflowing with blossoms, and delicate lanterns, rendered primarily in contrasting shades of deep indigo and warm, burnt orange. These elements are arranged symmetrically around a central, stylized geometric device, lending a sense of balance and tranquility to the piece. Framed by a sophisticated, multi-layered border, the design utilizes rich navy blue and golden ochre scrolling vines that contrast sharply with the pale interior field.
