Antique Chinese Deco Rug 49110, Country of Origin / Rug Type: China Rugs, Circa Date: 1920 – By establishing clear lines and paths of motion through the use of minimal colors, this beautiful antique Chinese rug is meant to set the scene. Light gold, bright vermilion and deep midnight blue all come together to define the landscape of this art deco rug. Transitioning from one color to the next becomes easy, especially when the viewer observes the relationships set between the colors, creating clear sections of contrast that almost seem to tell a story as they define the foreground and background. This is especially pronounced at the heart of the antique rug, where the lighter colors create an almost three-dimensional effect.
