Yellow Hand Knotted Pile Wool Chinese Art Deco Floral Antique 1920s Rug, Country of Origin: China, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional piece exemplifies the aesthetic evolution characteristic of Chinese Art Deco design. The thick, lustrous wool pile provides a rich texture, setting a luxurious foundation for the vibrant yellow coloration. The primary field is dominated by a striking, vibrant yellow hue, which provides dramatic contrast to the sparse, naturalistic motifs. Given its impressive scale, this room size rug is ideally suited to define a major living space or dining area. The overall design eschews dense patterning in favor of open space, highlighting elegantly rendered branches, butterflies, and a stylized phoenix. The delicate coloring of the blossoms—pinks, blues, and pale greens—is typical of the period, emphasizing the beauty of floral rugs in this style.
