Vintage Nichols Art Deco Rug, China, 1920s - A dazzling modern geometric design unfolds with mathematical precision across this incomparable vintage Nichols Art Deco Chinese rug. The basic design consists of a quatrefoil inscribed within a circular border. This framework has small triangles and rhombuses within it arranged in pinwheel patterns, with faceted pinwheels between the arms of the quatrefoil. The crisp complexity of the design is mollified by warmth and softness of the coloration in golds, cinnamon, and black against cool ivory.
