Small Scatter Size Rugs (1.06ft x 3.1ft), Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional piece is defined by its highly unusual fan or semi-circular form, a rare variation of a round rug design, suggesting it was originally designed as a hearth rug or a custom architectural element. The hand-knotted wool pile exhibits the soft, luxurious texture characteristic of the finest antique rugs produced during the early Art Deco period. The design employs a striking radial field composed of alternating broad stripes in warm beige and a vibrant, yet softened, coral hue. Delicate branches bearing stylized blossoms in deep teal and pale gold overlay this striped ground, creating a sophisticated contrast. The use of a rich coral palette anchors the piece in the sophisticated tastes of the Jazz Age.
