Drawing profound inspiration from an original antique, this custom design revives the serene elegance and restrained charm of the 1920s and 30s Chinese Art Deco aesthetic.

On the Design:

This rug is a study in Wabi-Sabi elegance and serene naturalism, a poetic tribute to the most revered of Chinese motifs: bamboo. It beautifully captures the spirit of Chinese Art Deco, which often simplified nature to its essential, striking forms. The central field is a vast, unadorned expanse of warm, sandy taupe, serving as a placid canvas that allows the central design to breathe and command attention.

The artistry focuses on a sparse, yet powerful, vertical composition of bamboo stalks. Rendered in delicate shades of terracotta and soft burnt orange, the stalks rise dramatically toward the top, while the distinctive, stylized leaves are depicted in shades of deep forest green and slate blue, providing a cool contrast to the warm field.

At the base, stylized rock and wave formations in indigo and seafoam green anchor the composition, nodding to traditional landscape painting.

The design’s genius lies in its masterful use of negative space and its asymmetrical balance, achieving a profound sense of uncluttered serenity and subtle sophistication. This piece is a work of enduring quality for the modern home, inviting a sense of calm and natural simplicity into any space. See less
