Rectangle Blue Antique Wool Hand Knotted Pile Floral Medallion 1900s Rug, Circa Date: 1900s. This exceptional piece exemplifies the restrained elegance of early 20th-century Chinese weaving. Its deeply saturated field, rendered in a striking indigo hue, provides a dramatic backdrop characteristic of fine blue color rugs from this period.

The design utilizes an open-field concept, allowing the rich blue expanse to dominate. A delicate central vase, overflowing with stylized blossoms, anchors the composition. The sparse, naturalistic sprays placed symmetrically around the field highlight the sophisticated use of negative space, defining it as a classic example among floral rugs.

A wide, contrasting border in warm, earthy brown frames the central design, providing visual weight and definition. This juxtaposition of deep indigo and soft camel tones creates a balanced, versatile palette suitable for sophisticated interiors. Given its generous dimensions, this piece functions perfectly as one of our premier room size rugs.

Hand-knotted using high-quality wool, the pile retains a luxurious density and sheen, testifying to the craftsmanship of the era. This refined aesthetic, prioritizing color and form over dense patterning, ensures the rug remains a timeless investment piece, highly sought after by collectors of authentic antique rugs. See less
