Room Size Ivory Antique 1920s Rectangle Chinese Knotted Wool Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional example of early 20th-century Chinese weaving perfectly captures the transition into the Art Deco aesthetic. Its expansive dimensions classify it as a true room size rug, ideal for anchoring a grand living space or formal reception area. The palette is deliberately restrained and highly sophisticated, focusing on the interplay between the lustrous, subtly shifting ivory beige cream field and the deep indigo blue used for the primary motifs. This high-contrast approach emphasizes the graphic clarity characteristic of the period, moving decisively away from the dense patterning of earlier traditional textiles. The design features scattered, elegant botanical sprays—including bamboo and stylized blossoms—that float across the open field.
