Stunning Lacquer Red Chinese Art Deco Carpet

About the Item

During the Art Deco period many designers commissioned their patterns to the city looms located in Tianjin through companies such as Nichols & Co. Some designs, such as this one, show a combination of European sensibility together with a Chinese influence, where we see Ming period vases framed by tone-on-tone floral elements on a rich lacquer red background. The latter color is quite unique for this family of carpets, denoting it with refinement and timeless elegance. For further reading please see E. Bogen, ‘What the Wool Trade Wrought – Rug-making in Early 20th Century Tianjin,’ Hali, Issue 118 (London, September-October 2001): 102-105.
