Antique Chinese Rug, Country of Origin: China, Circa Date: Early 20th Century – This worldly antique Chinese rug depicts a refined medallion composition rendered in a chic combination of ecru and muted aqua blue. The sparse Eastern composition highlights the negative space of the field and the visual interplay that occurs between each isolated botanical motif. The central composition depicts a minimalist medallion with flourishing leaflets and graceful vine scrolls. Sparse fretwork spandrels and arching botanical swags create a visual microcosm that reflects the larger proportions and composition of the field. Delicate reciprocating vine-scroll motifs and formal fretwork borders featuring an asymmetric pinyin wan variation enclose the refined and sophisticated elements that appear within the elegantly styled field of this timeless antique Chinese rug.
