On the Design:

This piece serves as a masterful bridge between the structured glamour of the Jazz Age and the delicate, narrative artistry of traditional Eastern textiles.

The field is bathed in a deeply resonant terracotta red, offering a warm and sophisticated foundation that allows the whimsical floral elements of this Chinese Art Deco style to radiate with a vivid, three-dimensional energy.

Breaking away from rigid traditional layouts, the composition favors a lush, pictorial movement where flowering peonies and plum blossoms in dusty rose, cream, and sky blue drift across the canvas. A graceful butterfly hovers near the top, introducing a sense of serene movement that captures the "painterly" and ethereal quality iconic to the Chinese Art Deco aesthetic of the 1920s.

The entire composition is contained by a slim, deep-burgundy inner border and a wide, tan outer frame that creates a clean, architectural finish. Every detail honors the vintage spirit of the period while maintaining a contemporary clarity—translating antique elegance into a distinguished contemporary piece. See less
