Extraordinary Early 20th Century Chinese Art Deco Rug
About the Item
In over 40 years of dealing in fine rugs, few pieces have stopped us in our tracks like this early 20th-century Chinese Art Deco masterpiece. Woven in the 1920s, it depicts a lush garden of peonies and chrysanthemums, enclosed by a delicate fence and shaded beneath a lattice pergola. In the lower right corner, a potted bamboo plant stretches skyward, its branches adorned with floating paper lanterns—an ethereal, dreamlike touch. The border is truly otherworldly, with a dazzling bat-and-chrysanthemum motif alternating with radiant peonies. An inner stripe carries a stylized dragon pattern, adding movement and mythic energy. The palette is pure Art Deco fantasy: gold, indigo, violet, purple, and turquoise woven in rich, saturated hues. This rug is not only an exceptional example of Chinese craftsmanship, but also a definitive expression of 1920s Art Deco design—elegant, whimsical, and entirely unforgettable. A true standout, even among the best.
