Wool 1900s Room Size Rectangle Knotted Chinese - Peking Antique Blue Rug, Circa Date: 1900s. This Chinese Peking piece, dating to the 1900s, represents the height of early 20th-century decorative weaving. Its substantial dimensions classify it among desirable room size rugs, perfect for anchoring a formal living space or dining room. The defining characteristic is the saturated, almost midnight blue field, a hallmark of high-quality Peking production. This deep indigo provides a dramatic backdrop for the contrasting ivory and pale gold accents, making it a spectacular example of blue color rugs. The use of color is subtle yet powerful, ensuring the rug commands attention without overwhelming the surrounding décor. The design employs traditional Chinese symbolism, featuring scattered vases, stylized butterflies, and a central medallion filled with landscape elements.
