About the Item

Vintage Chinese Art Deco Rug Size: 9'10" × 15'4" (299 × 467 cm) This understated yet sophisticated vintage Chinese Art Deco rug, crafted circa 1940, exemplifies the quiet elegance and balance of early 20th-century Eastern design sensibilities interpreted through a Western modernist lens. The rug’s composition is executed in a near-monochromatic palette of warm mocha brown, which allows its tone-on-tone design to emerge subtly and powerfully. At the heart of the piece lies an expansive, medallion-like motif—an abstracted, architectural composition that radiates outward in perfect symmetry. The finely etched geometric and floral elements are woven in relief using a slightly deeper or lighter hue of the same brown, lending the piece its soft dimensionality and sense of quiet luxury. Along the field, delicate floral medallions and scattered organic motifs are gently incorporated, offering depth without visual noise. A broad border frames the central pattern, with stylized florals and flowing tendrils that blend almost imperceptibly into the background, a characteristic often seen in Chinese carpets of the period aiming for harmony rather than contrast. Woven from high-quality wool, the rug’s velvety pile and impeccable craftsmanship speak to the artisanal excellence of mid-century Chinese weaving workshops. The visual restraint and tonal richness make this piece an ideal complement to minimalist, Art Deco, or even contemporary interiors—where it can act as an anchor of warmth, texture, and subtle ornamentation. 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.
