About the Item

Vintage Chinese Blue Botanic Rug Size: 9'7" × 18'8" (292 × 568 cm). This elegant vintage Chinese Deco rug from the 1950s exudes a tranquil refinement through its harmonious use of soft blues and creams. At nearly 19 feet long, this carpet commands attention with its generous scale while maintaining a serene, airy aesthetic. Woven in wool with a velvety pile, the rug’s surface is decorated with an array of stylized botanical motifs, symmetrically arranged across the field. The repeating geometric floral forms and cloud-like medallions are rendered in shades of powder blue, slate, and ivory, creating a cool, tonal contrast that evokes the calm of traditional Chinese garden scenes. The border features a graceful sequence of floral and vine elements framed by double guard stripes, a motif commonly found in Peking rugs of this era. These borders provide architectural structure to the otherwise soft, organic field and balance the rug's composition. Crafted during a period when Chinese artisans were reinterpreting classical motifs through the lens of Art Deco, this piece captures the subtle tension between tradition and modernity. Its restrained palette and symmetrical patterning make it an ideal choice for both classical and contemporary interiors, lending a sense of quiet luxury and meditative order. Whether placed in a gallery-like living room or a serene bedroom, this vintage Chinese rug offers timeless elegance with a uniquely Eastern Deco sensibility. 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.
