Knotted Chinese - Art Deco Antique Room Size Wool Rectangle 1920s Coral Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional example of early 20th-century weaving embodies the fusion of traditional Chinese craftsmanship with the bold, simplified aesthetic of the Art Deco movement. Its generous scale qualifies it as a true room size rug, ideal for anchoring a sophisticated interior space with historical depth. The central field is dominated by a stunning, luminous shade of coral color, which shifts subtly under light due to the high-quality wool pile and the intentional use of negative space. This vibrant hue is framed dramatically by a wide, dark border, creating a powerful contrast that is characteristic of the period's preference for high saturation and clean lines. While the composition emphasizes open space, the borders are meticulously detailed with sparse yet elegant iconography.
