Antique 1920s Wool Green Rectangle Hand Knotted Pile Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This magnificent example of early 20th-century design captures the refined elegance typical of the Art Deco period. Its lush, deep field is rendered in a saturated emerald tone, making this a standout piece among green color rugs.

The design employs a sophisticated Chinese Deco aesthetic, utilizing a simulated bamboo frame border interwoven with sprays of delicate blossoms and foliage. The palette of the motifs—featuring soft mauves, pale yellows, and subtle pinks—offers a gentle contrast to the intensity of the primary field color. This piece is a testament to the diverse styles found in antique rugs.

Hand-knotted using high-quality wool, the pile exhibits a luxurious, thick texture that was highly prized during the period. The skillful execution of the knotting technique allows the deep green field to absorb light beautifully, creating a dynamic, velvety surface appearance.

As an exceptional example of its era, this rug provides substantial coverage suitable for grand spaces. Its generous proportions make it ideal for anchoring a formal living area, classifying it among the finest room size rugs. The timeless blend of natural motifs and bold color ensures its relevance in contemporary design schemes. See less
