Room Size Chinese - Art Deco Knotted Rectangle 1920s Red Wool Antique Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This magnificent example of Chinese Art Deco weaving captures the sophisticated aesthetic of the early 20th century. Its generous dimensions classify it as a true room size rug, ideal for anchoring a formal living space or dining area. The emphasis on open space and stylized motifs is characteristic of the period. The rug features an exceptionally rich, saturated field color, a deep interpretation of the red wool specified in its description. This striking hue provides a dramatic backdrop for the sparse, elegant ornamentation. The use of contrasting navy blue in the inner guard border sharpens the transition to the expansive central plane, a technique often employed in Art Deco design to create visual depth and structure.
