Antique Knotted Wool 1920s Chinese – Art Deco Rectangle Small Scatter Size Rug, Country of Origin: China, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional piece is a prime example of early 20th-century Chinese rugs, demonstrating the shift towards Western aesthetics while retaining traditional weaving quality and the luxurious, thick pile characteristic of the era.

The design adheres strictly to the Art Deco principles of negative space and bold color contrast. A saturated, luminous orange-red field is framed by a deeper claret border. The sparse, stylized vine and blossom pattern exemplifies the modern interpretation of floral rugs characteristic of Chinese Art Deco rugs from this period.

The composition utilizes a single, central blossoming branch and delicate corner sprays, allowing the rich wool texture and deep field color to dominate. Its practical small scatter size rugs format makes it an ideal accent piece for a hallway, bedside, or intimate reading nook, providing a vibrant splash of color without overwhelming the space.

Woven during a pivotal moment in global textile history, this rug captures the sophisticated glamour of the Jazz Age filtered through Eastern craftsmanship. It remains a highly collectible artifact, representing the finest quality found among true antique rugs of the 1920s era. See less
