Rectangle Room Size Antique Chinese 1920s Blue Knotted Wool - Peking Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional piece represents the height of early 20th-century Chinese weaving, characterized by its luxurious knotted wool pile and expansive dimensions, qualifying it as a true room size rug. The field is dominated by a rich, saturated indigo, a highly sought-after shade in blue color rugs from the Peking tradition. This deep hue provides a striking contrast to the delicate, sparsely placed motifs, lending the overall composition an air of serene sophistication typical of the period. A subtle central medallion, composed of finely drawn blossoms and scrolling vines, anchors the design. The open field is punctuated by small, naturalistic sprays, showcasing the refined execution found in the best floral rugs of this era, emphasizing elegance over density.
