Antique Chinese Rug, China, Early 20th Century – This outstanding antique Chinese rug depicts a marvelous floral medallion adorned with tonal vine scrolls and graceful butterflies. The delicate vine scrolls blend into the beautifully patterned field, which features a superb tone-on-tone pattern of meandering vines that is enclosed by subtle fretwork spandrels. Bold colors and exotic floral motifs fill the grand border, which enlivens the sophisticated composition. Auspicious bian fu bats set among stylized clouds create a casual border that frames the exceptional vine scroll pattern. Grand dragons with graceful intertwining tails are artfully worked into the lavish botanical borders, which feature a lovely variety of filigree vine scrolls with delicate spiraling tendrils. This beautifully balanced antique rug features a simplistic palette of sweet potato brown, ecru and saturated ultramarine blue that is used with great effect.
