Wool Floral 1920s Antique Rectangle Hand Knotted Pile Red Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exquisite piece represents the peak of early 20th-century Chinese weaving, blending traditional botanical motifs with the bold asymmetry and open field characteristic of the Art Deco movement. As one of our finest antique rugs, its visual impact—driven by the intense color saturation—is immediate and captivating. The central field is dominated by a saturated, vibrant red, providing a dramatic and luminous backdrop for the delicate, multi-hued botanical elements. The juxtaposition of this vibrant field against the subtle, deeper red border creates a sophisticated tension characteristic of this era's design. This rug is a superb example of red color rugs, demonstrating how complex color theory was applied to create depth and luxury.
