Vintage Deco Rug 2609

Art Deco Rug, China, Circa 1900 - A reciprocal pattern of circles and concave squares constitutes the field of this charming little Arts and Crafts rug. Small rosettes fill the circles while the concave squares are divided into triangular facets of differing color. A closer look reveals that the triangles collectively form diamonds enclosing the circles. As part of this blend of subtlety and graphic boldness, the main design utilizes dark linear emphasis while most of the design is articulated by softer shifts of color.
