Antique Chinese – Art Deco Ivory 1935 Rug, Circa Date: 1935. This exceptional piece exemplifies the height of the Chinese Art Deco weaving tradition, blending traditional motifs with the modernist emphasis on negative space. Its provenance places it firmly within the golden age of antique rugs produced in the coastal workshops of China for Western export.

The expansive field is rendered in a subtle, lustrous shade of ivory beige cream, providing a serene backdrop that highlights the delicate nature of the design. This sophisticated use of a muted, monochromatic ground is a defining feature of the Art Deco aesthetic, allowing the scattered motifs to float effortlessly across the surface.

The design eschews heavy borders in favor of gracefully trailing branches and stylized blossoms concentrated primarily in the corners and along the edges. These floral rugs patterns utilize a sophisticated palette of soft pastels—robin’s egg blue, pale rose, and ochre—creating a gentle contrast against the neutral ground without overwhelming the eye.

Designed to anchor a sophisticated interior, this piece is sized perfectly as one of our premier room size rugs. Its restrained elegance and clean lines ensure it complements both period Art Deco furnishings and contemporary minimalist settings, offering a rare blend of historical authenticity and timeless decorative appeal.
