Rectangle Hand Knotted Pile Antique Ivory Beige Cream White 1920s Wool Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exquisite piece exemplifies the refined artistry of early 20th-century Chinese weaving, a period highly valued by collectors of antique rugs. Hand-knotted using luxurious wool, the rug presents a long, narrow format characteristic of a runner or scatter size, designed for elegant placement in hallways or intimate spaces.
The central field is dominated by a warm, luminous ground color, placing it firmly within the category of ivory beige cream white color rugs. This neutral foundation provides a sophisticated backdrop for the sparse, delicate floral sprays scattered across the surface. These motifs utilize soft blues and creams, maintaining a restrained elegance typical of high-quality Peking production.
A striking contrast is achieved by the wide, deep indigo border, which frames the lighter field with dramatic effect. The border design features a flowing vine pattern, richly detailed with stylized blossoms and leaves rendered in pale yellow and white tones. This juxtaposition of light and dark hues enhances the visual depth and structural integrity of the composition.
Measuring dimensions appropriate for Small Scatter Size Rugs (3ft x 5.09ft), this piece offers versatility while retaining the grandeur of larger formats. Its superb condition and classic coloration make it an exceptional decorative accent, reflecting the enduring appeal of Chinese textile craftsmanship from the Republican Era.
