About the Item

Vintage Chinese Art Deco Rug Size: 11'8" × 16'9" (355 × 510 cm) This rare and sophisticated 1920s Chinese Art Deco rug beautifully bridges East Asian artistry with Western decorative sensibilities of the early 20th century. Hand-knotted in luxurious wool, the piece exemplifies the stylistic richness and precision characteristic of Chinese weaving traditions, while embracing the bold symmetry and refined abstraction of Art Deco design. The field of the rug is richly decorated with a repeating damask-style pattern of stylized lotus flowers, peonies, and ornate foliage arranged in mirrored vertical columns. The overall visual effect is both lush and orderly, suggesting influences from traditional imperial textiles while remaining firmly rooted in modernist aesthetics. Executed in a harmonious palette of soft teal against a muted golden beige ground, the colors feel both grounding and luminous, giving the rug a gentle yet sophisticated ambiance. The borders are meticulously composed of layered frames, with a broad primary band featuring palmettes and cartouches interwoven with scrolling tendrils. Inner and outer guard borders showcase petite diamond and cross motifs, lending contrast and depth without disrupting the rug's balanced elegance. Despite its age, the rug maintains excellent condition, a testament to both its craftsmanship and careful preservation. This piece would serve as a distinguished centerpiece in a formal interior, adding historical charm and visual refinement to both classic and contemporary spaces. 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.
