Hand Knotted Pile Antique Wool Ivory Beige Cream White Rectangle 1920s Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exquisite Chinese Peking rug from the 1920s exemplifies the refined elegance of the period, featuring a luxurious, high-quality wool pile. The expansive, luminous field is rendered in soft, neutral tones, placing it among the most sought-after ivory beige cream white color rugs in our collection.

Characteristic of early 20th-century Chinese weaving, the design employs a minimalist aesthetic, allowing the creamy ground to dominate. Scattered across the field are delicate, stylized vignettes—including floral sprigs, butterflies, and symbolic vases—rendered in subtle shades of pale rose and deep indigo. This balance of negative space and precise artistry defines the finest examples of oriental rugs from the Far East.

A striking, wide border frames the composition, utilizing a saturated sapphire blue that provides a dramatic contrast to the light field. This border is intricately detailed with traditional Chinese symbols, including trailing vines and stylized leaves, emphasizing the rug's architectural presence. Given its generous dimensions (6.02ft x 8.08ft), this piece is perfectly suited for large living areas or formal dining spaces, classifying it among our finest room size rugs.

Retaining its remarkable clarity of color and supple handle after a century of existence, this rug is a testament to the enduring quality of early 20th-century Chinese craftsmanship. Its sophisticated palette and timeless design ensure it remains a highly decorative and valuable piece, representing the enduring legacy of exceptional antique rugs. See less
