About the Item

Vintage Chinese Art Deco Rug Size: 9'9" × 19'1" (297 × 581 cm) This captivating Chinese Art Deco rug from the 1940s is a rare and refined example of Eastern artistry meeting modernist sensibilities. Woven during a time when Western design was influencing traditional Chinese craftsmanship, this piece reflects a graceful confluence of cultures. The field features a softly muted taupe-beige background composed of a subtle checkerboard pattern that provides quiet movement without overpowering the composition. Delicate floral sprays and auspicious Chinese symbols—such as peonies, pomegranates, and stylized medallions—are scattered throughout the rug in painterly tones of rose, apricot, ivory, sapphire blue, and soft indigo. These organic motifs appear almost as if drifting gently across the surface, lending the piece a dreamlike, atmospheric quality. A pinkish-lavender border filled with blooming blossoms frames the central design. This outer border is further enriched by sinuous vine work and rich botanical detail, executed with a soft, almost watercolor effect that demonstrates the finesse of hand-knotting and tonal gradation. Crafted from high-quality wool, the pile remains lustrous and supple despite its age. The composition exudes a serene sophistication that’s both elegant and unpretentious—perfect for interiors that celebrate quiet luxury or vintage-inspired eclecticism. 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.
