About the Item

78725 Antique Purple Chinese Art Deco Rug, 04'11 x 07'09. Chinese Art Deco rugs, originating in the early 20th century, marry traditional Chinese motifs with the geometric shapes and vibrant color palettes characteristic of the Art Deco movement. Featuring striking patterns and stylized floral designs, these rugs reinterpret traditional Chinese symbols in a modern and sleek manner. Produced mainly during the 1920s and 1930s amid significant social and cultural changes in China, these rugs reflect a fascinating fusion of Eastern craftsmanship and Western design influences. Highly coveted by collectors and interior designers, Chinese Art Deco rugs bring a touch of elegance, sophistication, and historical intrigue to any space, appealing to those who value both traditional heritage and avant-garde aesthetics. In a symphony of captivating opulence and mystery, this hand knotted wool antique Chinese Art Deco rug emerges as a masterstroke of maximalist design. The lavish floral motifs and deeply saturated jewel-tone colors intertwine, casting an alluring and exotic aura. Against a brooding backdrop of dark purple, the floral arrangement, delicately perched in the bottom corner, becomes a mesmerizing focal point. Lotuses, peonies, chrysanthemums, and plum blossoms, ensconced within the border, exude an air of grandeur and vitality, their vibrant hues piercing through the darkness with decadent allure. The judicious use of open space ensures that the intricate floral border commands attention, weaving a narrative of seasons past and present, each bloom laden with its own symbolic weight. The lotus, rising from murky depths, symbolizes purity and perfection, while peonies, heralds of spring, embody untold beauty and honor. Chrysanthemums, guardians of autumn, whisper secrets of longevity and golden days, while plum blossoms, stalwarts of winter, stand resilient amidst frost and snow. This antique Chinese Art Deco rug, a testament to the intricate weave of life's cycles, beckons the beholder into a world of beguiling enchantment and boundless intrigue. Abrash. Hand knotted wool. Made in China. Measures: 04'11 x 07'09. Date: 1920s. Early 20th Century.
