Antique Chinese - Art Deco Purple 1920s Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional piece is a hallmark of the transitional design period, blending traditional Chinese iconography with the bold, saturated palette favored by the Western Art Deco movement. Its rarity and superb condition make it a highly desirable example among antique rugs of the early 20th century.

The central field is dominated by a rich, deeply saturated purple—a hue often associated with luxury and sophistication during the Jazz Age. This vibrant ground provides a dramatic backdrop for the delicate, naturalistic floral sprays and floating butterflies. The use of this intense color places it firmly within the category of purple color rugs, offering a powerful statement piece for contemporary interiors.

The design is characterized by an open field aesthetic, allowing the eye to appreciate the velvety texture and depth of the wool. Scattered across the expanse are elegant, meandering vines and stylized blossoms, defining it as a superior example of floral rugs. The contrast is further heightened by the wide, midnight blue border featuring stylized peonies and scrolling foliage in soft pinks and greens.

Woven in the highly sought-after scale necessary to anchor a major living space, this textile presents as a magnificent room size rug. Its generous dimensions and striking visual presence ensure that it functions not merely as floor covering, but as the foundational element of a sophisticated design scheme, whether paired with period furnishings or modern minimalist decor.
