Antique Chinese Peking rug, size: 7'10" x 9'8".
Blue Floral Medallion Hand Knotted Pile Rectangle Wool Antique 1920s Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional piece captures the aesthetic transition of Chinese weaving in the Republican era, utilizing a magnificent field of saturated indigo and robin's egg hues. The striking depth of the primary shade makes this a superb example among blue color rugs available today.
The composition is defined by a subtle central medallion surrounded by a constellation of auspicious symbols, including stylized butterflies and vases overflowing with blossoms. Unlike the dense patterning of traditional Persian pieces, the open field allows the delicate, light-colored floral motifs to float gracefully against the rich background. This elegant use of design places it firmly within the category of fine floral rugs.
Framing the dynamic field is a classic Chinese border featuring the geometric meander or "Greek key" pattern, rendered in deep navy and set against a contrasting ivory ground. The substantial dimensions of this piece classify it among the most desirable room size rugs, pesyd scale.
Woven from high-quality wool with a resilient hand-knotted pile, this rug exhibits the soft patina and gentle wear characteristic of nearly a century of careful preservation. It stands as a testament to the enduring craftsmanship of the period and represents a highly sought-after acquisition for collectors of fine antique rugs.
