Room Size Ivory Chinese 1920s Knotted Antique Wool Rectangle - Art Deco Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional room Size Chinese Art Deco carpet exemplifies the vibrant aesthetic transition of the early 20th century. Woven during a period of intense cultural exchange, it merges traditional Chinese iconography with the bold, often simplified color palettes favored by Western modernism. The composition is anchored by a luminous, open ivory field that allows the complex, naturalistic elements to truly flourish. Unlike earlier, highly formal Chinese textiles, this piece embraces asymmetry and dynamic movement, utilizing striking tones of coral, sapphire, and celadon against the soft neutral ground. A sophisticated rendering of nature dominates the surface, featuring lush peonies, trailing vines, and exotic birds.
