Vintage Chinese Silk Room Size Ivory Rug, Circa Date: 1980s. This exquisite example of a vintage Chinese production showcases the luxurious drape and sheen only achievable through a pure silk foundation and pile. The density of the knotting suggests a piece crafted for the export market, appealing to Western sensibilities for elegance and scale. The field is dominated by a soft, luminous ivory ground, providing a perfect counterpoint to the central medallion. This large, circular motif is rendered in deep forest green and accented with subtle tones of rose and beige, creating a sophisticated contrast that anchors the composition. A sophisticated European influence is evident in the design, featuring intricate, scrolling acanthus leaves and delicate floral sprays dispersed throughout the main field.
