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 opulent color and classical elegance, a poetic interpretation of an enclosed garden scene. It beautifully captures the spirit of Chinese Art Deco, which often juxtaposed rich, dramatic color palettes with delicate, stylized motifs. The central field is a vast, quiet expanse of deep, forested green, creating a tranquil canvas that allows the vibrant burgundy frame to command immediate attention.

The composition is framed by an unusually wide and plush border of rich burgundy/wine, creating a luxurious, architectural enclosure. This border is delineated by a crisp inner line of pale gold/beige. Climbing over this boundary and embracing the field is a lyrical scattering of elegant florals: stylized peonies, cherry blossoms, and delicate vines bloom in asymmetrical sprays across the field.

The palette is a masterful play of soft pastels against the deep foundation—featuring blush pink, muted peach, dusty blue, and pale yellow accents. The genius of this design lies in its mastery of dramatic contrast and balance; the strong burgundy frame provides a sophisticated anchor to the floating floral arrangements, resulting in a piece of enduring quality and timeless, unforgettable beauty for the modern home.
