Antique Chinese – Art Deco Chinese Ivory 1920s Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional piece is a hallmark of the Art Deco period, seamlessly blending modern geometric sensibilities with traditional Chinese iconography. It represents a significant era in textile history, highly sought after by collectors of antique rugs.

The expansive central field is rendered in a rich, warm gold or deep beige, providing a luxurious contrast to the pale blue-green border. This masterful use of color, particularly the muted primary tone, places it among the most desirable ivory color rugs of the decade, offering a soft yet commanding presence in any environment.

Scattered across the luminous field are delicate depictions of traditional Chinese landscapes, including stylized pagodas and floating cloud forms. The composition avoids heavy symmetry, allowing the sparse, elegant imagery to breathe. The border is densely populated with large, stylized chrysanthemums, complementing the delicate floral motifs within the field.

Woven with a plush, thick pile characteristic of the finest Chinese production of the 1920s, this carpet retains remarkable depth and luster. Its generous dimensions classify it among the most versatile room size rugs, capable of anchoring a sophisticated interior space while serving as a singular work of textile art. See less
