Magnificent Navy Blue Background Large Antique Chinese Rug, Country of Origin / Rug Type: China Rug, Circa Date: 1920 – This stunning large navy blue background antique Chinese carpet is simply a breathtaking piece of textile art. The rich, velvety texture and deep navy blue hue produce a comfortably supple finish. The exquisite magenta, pinkish gold, sky blue and purple ornaments provide the perfect touch of color to complete the overall artistry and detail design work.

The central field design pattern of this gorgeous antique carpet is encapsulated within a series of beautifully artistic borders. The outermost guard border is a thinner solid navy blue. Next is a border that boasts a lighter hue of this same blue color. This second border displays a charmingly flamboyant array of flowers and vine scrolls  in colors that include a pensive magenta tone, pastel creams and subtle purple. These warmer hues are naturally illuminated and stand out against the bold navy background on which they are rendered.

The third and last border that encapsulates the nucleus of this beautiful large size rug is a delicate lighter tan. This lighter strand is adorned with intriguing flora and fauna pattern that draws from the surrounding imagery but also creates an alluringly organic illustration of its own. Delicately butterflies decorate each corner of this large antique Chinese rug and exotic flowers are strewn about in a delightfully fanciful fashion.

These skillfully layered borders set the stage for the blissful and peaceful scene in the center of this breathtaking antique Oriental rug. The floral decals are more sparse in this central section, providing just enough space for the eye to notice each and every embroidered decoration and artistic element.

The entire large antique Chinese rug is unified by a single vase of flowers that is situated precisely in the center. This exquisitely ornate masterpiece is an elegant example that is fit for royalty. Without a doubt, it will add a magnetic charm to any interior designed space.
