Antique Art Deco Chinese Floral Coral 1920s Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional example of early 20th-century Chinese weaving captures the vibrant aesthetics of the Art Deco movement, utilizing a striking contrast between the deep coral field and the broad, tranquil seafoam green border. The asymmetrical composition is typical of the period, offering a modern interpretation of traditional motifs. The field is dominated by a saturated, almost coral tone, which provides a dramatic backdrop for the delicate pictorial elements. Scattered across this expansive canvas are finely rendered images of flowering prunus branches, ornate lanterns, and stylized butterflies, executed in soft pastels of blue, yellow, and white. This bold use of color places it among desirable coral color rugs that define the era's palette.
