Chinese Antique Small Scatter Size 1920s Rectangle Knotted Wool Ivory - Peking Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exquisite Peking rug, dating from the height of the Art Deco period in China, presents a highly desirable small scatter size. Its hand-knotted wool construction ensures both longevity and a luxurious texture underfoot. The central field utilizes a muted, sophisticated ivory color, providing a calm, expansive backdrop that is characteristic of early 20th-century Chinese weaving intended for Western export. This neutral core is framed dramatically by a deep, saturated indigo border. The border features traditional Chinese symbols, including stylized ribbons and medallions, executed in subtle shades of terracotta, blue, and taupe. The open field is punctuated only by a few carefully placed, delicate floral motifs, maintaining the minimalist elegance sought after during the period.
