Square Small Scatter Size Wool 1900s Chinese - Peking Knotted Blue Antique Rug, Circa Date: 1900s. This exquisite square Peking scatter rug, dating from the early 20th century, showcases the refined aesthetic of Chinese weaving during a period of transition. The field is dominated by a saturated, deep indigo, providing a dramatic backdrop for the stylized motifs, characteristic of fine blue color rugs. Unlike the highly structured medallion formats of earlier periods, this square piece employs a scattered, almost abstract composition. Various stylized symbols and domestic objects, rendered in warm camel and beige tones, float across the dark field. While the overall effect is pictorial, the simplified, blocky forms lend the composition a distinct, appealingly geometric character.
