Antique Art Deco Chinese Runner, Elegance

About the Item

Step into a world of rare elegance with our exquisite Art Deco Runner, a true marvel from the 1920s that carries the allure of a bygone era. Crafted with precision in China, this runner is a testament to the impeccable craftsmanship of its time. Remarkably preserved in very good condition, it boasts a color palette that is both unusual and breathtakingly beautiful - a serene blue background complemented by a narrow gold and blue border. The rug's design is a masterpiece in itself, featuring row of vases gracing opposite corners, while stylized flowers and delicate butterflies dance throughout center the rug's expanse. This intricate interplay of elements is a testament to the artistry that defined the Art Deco movement. Measuring 2'2" x 7'8", this runner's versatile size makes it an ideal addition to hallways and rooms alike. Its story is interwoven with the legacy of Walter Nichols, a renowned American rug producer in Tientsin. The rugs he produced, though not originating the Art Deco style, embraced it with a blend of wool and silk, bringing to life bold, vibrant colors and pictorial scenes that included trees, birds, clouds, mountains, dragons, butterflies, and flowers. As you introduce this Art Deco masterpiece into your space, you invite a symphony of history, art, and sophistication. Every step along its length is a journey through time, connecting you to an era that celebrated creativity and innovation. Let its elegance and distinctive design captivate both your eye and imagination, turning your hallway or room into a canvas of nostalgia and beauty. Cherish this rug as a testament to an era that revered both tradition and progress, a piece of art that enriches your space and carries with it a story worth sharing. Professionally cleaned, no stains or odors.
