Rectangle 1930s Knotted Wool Antique Chinese Room Size - Art Deco Coral Rug, Circa Date: 1930s. This magnificent example of Chinese Art Deco weaving captures the transitional aesthetic of the period. Its generous scale makes it a true room size centerpiece, woven from luxurious, hand-knotted wool that retains a remarkable depth of pile, characteristic of the finest early 20th-century production. The primary field is saturated in a rich, velvety wine hue, providing a dramatic backdrop for the stylized ornamentation. While the ground is deep maroon, the title refers to the vibrant accents of coral, which define the overall coral color palette when viewed in totality. This bold use of color contrast and high-sheen wool is a hallmark of sophisticated Art Deco design from China.
