Antique Art Deco Chinese Floral Green, Red 1920s Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional example of antique rugs exemplifies the opulent transition of Chinese weaving into the Art Deco era, moving away from traditional motifs toward a more naturalistic, yet stylized, presentation.

The central field is rendered in a saturated, deep crimson, providing a dramatic backdrop for the sprawling vines and blossoms. This rich hue contrasts sharply with the soft, mossy border, characteristic of fine green color rugs, creating visual depth essential to the period’s aesthetic.

Large, naturalistic roses and peonies dominate the composition, rendered in subtle shades of lavender, cream, and pale gold. The design is fluid and asymmetrical, utilizing open space to emphasize the luxurious texture of the wool pile and the bold, graphic separation provided by the saffron guard stripe.

Woven to a substantial scale, this piece functions perfectly as a central anchor in a living or dining space, qualifying it among the finest room size rugs. Its sophisticated palette and refined pattern offer a genuine connection to the glamour and artistic innovation of the Jazz Age. See less
