This Early 20th Century Art Deco Chinese Room Size Rug in pastel colors. Handwoven in the early 1900s, the rug features a soft wheat or pale oatmeal field that provides a luminous and calming foundation for its elegant decorative motifs.
The design centers on a group of seven medallions, with the largest medallion positioned in the middle of the field and six smaller motifs arranged harmoniously around it. This balanced composition reflects the understated elegance often found in early Chinese Art Deco rugs, where simplicity and thoughtful placement of design elements create a visually captivating effect.
Accents of pale pink, burgundy, olive green, and brown bring gentle contrast to the wheat-toned field, enhancing the rug’s warm and inviting palette. In the corners, decorative spandrels with scrolling lines and stylized rosettes add graceful movement to the composition while maintaining the rug’s balanced aesthetic.
The rug is framed by two distinctive borders. The inner border features a refined lattice pattern, while the outer border showcases scrolling vine motifs woven in shades of olive green, brown, and ivory set against a soft pale pink ground. These layered borders beautifully frame the central field and reinforce the rug’s decorative harmony.
