Antique Art Deco Chinese Floral Green 1935 Rug, Circa Date: 1935. This exceptional piece captures the transitional elegance of the 1930s, blending traditional Chinese motifs with the streamlined aesthetic of the Art Deco period. The design rejects the dense patterns of earlier eras, favoring vast, open fields of color that define the finest examples of antique rugs from this era.

The composition is defined by striking asymmetry, a hallmark of sophisticated Chinese Art Deco weaving. Clusters of large, naturalistic peonies and chrysanthemums cascade diagonally across the field, anchored in the upper right and lower left corners. These vibrant, multi-hued blooms—rendered in soft yellows, deep reds, and russet oranges—float against the expansive, saturated background, creating a dramatic sense of negative space.

The primary appeal lies in the magnificent field color: a lush, deep sage green that exhibits subtle abrash, giving the surface a rich, velvety depth. This particular shade of green provides a grounding sophistication, allowing the complex floral arrangements to truly resonate. Collectors seeking this specific hue will appreciate the depth found within our curated selection of green color rugs.

Woven with a luxurious, thick pile characteristic of high-quality Chinese production, this rug offers both visual beauty and superb tactile quality. Its substantial dimensions ensure it functions perfectly as a foundational element in a grand interior, capable of anchoring a living room or dining space. This piece is classified among our finest room size rugs, offering a rare combination of historical provenance and enduring decorative impact. See less
