Antique Chinese Chinese Ivory 1900s Ivory Rug, Circa Date: 1900s. This exceptional piece exemplifies the sophisticated weaving traditions of the Chinese style during the early Republican period. The composition is highly formal, featuring a narrow, elongated field defined by strong geometric borders and corner spandrels, typical of early 20th-century Asian imports. The central field is dominated by a rich, soft ground color, placing this textile firmly within the category of ivory color rugs. The use of saturated indigo blue and vibrant coral red creates a striking contrast, highlighting the central medallions and the intricate fretwork borders that frame the composition with classical precision. The primary decorative elements consist of two large, circular medallions anchored by scrolling vine work.
