Antique Peking Small Scatter Size Wool Blue Navy, Camel Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exquisite piece represents the height of early 20th-century Chinese weaving, blending traditional motifs with a distinctly modern aesthetic. Its composition places it firmly among the finest examples of antique rugs from the period.

The palette is defined by a sophisticated duality: a rich, almost inky navy background provides depth, while the central medallion and scattered sprays are rendered in a luminous camel tone. This striking use of contrast is highly sought after in blue color rugs, emphasizing the bold, graphic nature typical of Peking production.

Crafted from high-quality wool, the pile retains a luxurious softness indicative of careful preservation over the decades. The design features a delicate central floral roundel, framed by elegant corner spandrels and a wide, multi-layered border densely packed with scrolling vines and blossoms.

Measuring in a versatile dimension, this rug is perfectly suited for transitional spaces, hallways, or as an accent piece in a larger room. The utility of small scatter size rugs allows the owner to introduce significant historical artistry and color depth without dominating the space. See less
