Wool Rectangle Chinese - Peking Small Scatter Size 1920s Ivory Antique Knotted Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exquisite example of early 20th-century Chinese weaving hails from the famed Peking workshops, renowned for their luxurious wool pile and refined color palettes. Its practical dimensions classify it as a small scatter size, perfect for an entryway or bedside placement. The characteristic elegance of the period is immediately apparent in the subtle color composition. A warm, luminous ivory ground provides the backdrop for the stylized floral and cloud motifs rendered in deep indigo and soft sky blue, creating a striking contrast that remains sophisticated and restrained. The composition features an undulating vine system interspersed with stylized chrysanthemum blossoms, typical of the Art Deco influence beginning to permeate traditional Chinese design.
