Wool 1920s Antique Rectangle Hand Knotted Pile Ivory Beige Cream White Allover Floral Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exquisite hand-knotted piece captures the refined elegance of early 20th-century Chinese weaving, characterized by its luxurious wool pile and serene palette. The central field is dominated by soft tones of ivory beige cream white, providing a tranquil foundation for any sophisticated interior.

The subtle, scrolling vine and floral motifs create a sophisticated allover design that avoids visual interruption, allowing the rug to anchor a space without overwhelming it. This intentional use of tone-on-tone patterning and carefully modulated color is a hallmark of the finest Peking style productions from this era, emphasizing texture and form over high contrast.

Contrasting beautifully with the monochromatic field, the wide border features traditional Chinese landscape elements—pagodas, mountains, and stylized clouds—rendered in striking shades of soft blue and terracotta. Such finely preserved antique rugs offer a tangible connection to the artistic traditions of the past, serving as exceptional examples of textile artistry.

Crafted as a substantial piece, this rectangular textile is ideally suited for grand living areas or formal dining rooms, offering generous room size dimensions. The combination of durable wool construction and timeless design ensures that this piece remains a central, enduring feature in a high-end decorative scheme for generations to come. See less
