About the Item

Art Deco Chinese Rug Size: 13'10" × 20'2" (421 × 614 cm). This striking Art Deco Chinese rug from the 1930s is a superb example of East meets West design sensibility during the early modernist era. Woven in China during a time of bold experimentation and aesthetic fusion, the piece features a daring, abstract geometric composition that distinguishes it from traditional floral Chinese carpets. At the heart of the rug is a radiant medallion formed by elongated triangular segments in alternating shades of plum and rose, creating a visual rhythm that suggests movement and symmetry. This sunburst-like form is encased within a bold emerald-green oval, acting as a focal point that draws the eye inward. Surrounding the central motif is a rhythmic ring of interlocking circles rendered in golden amber tones, adding dimension and balance. This circular chain gives way to broader geometric contours and corner motifs in triangular frames, punctuated with violet discs that add a subtle echo of the center’s palette. The background of the rug is a warm camel hue with slight tonal gradations, giving the piece both richness and softness. The minimal use of color—focused on warm ambers, purples, and greens—heightens the modernist appeal while retaining a luxurious, velvety wool surface. Visually dynamic and architecturally inspired, this rug reflects the influence of European Art Deco design on Chinese textile production during the early 20th century. Its rare and impressive scale and aesthetic boldness make it a showpiece well-suited for grand interiors, contemporary or classic. Whether placed in a formal salon, an Art Deco-inspired setting, or a modern loft space, this carpet serves not just as a foundation—but as a centerpiece of design. This exquisite rug is part of the diversified Doris Leslie Blau selections, renowned for its curated selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs. Doris Leslie Blau offers a vast selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs in a wide range of styles, materials, and price points, making fine textile art accessible to both collectors and designers alike.
