Antique Ivory and Blue Color Chinese Rug, China, Early 20th Century – This beautifully styled antique Chinese rug showcases a classical Eastern composition with an elongated, well-proportioned runner-style format. The plush ivory field features a charming series of speckled lozenges arranged in a chic repeating pattern. Lavish main borders filled with spiraling vine scrolls and gradient blossoms follow the immense length of the composition and support the narrow proportions of the beautifully decorated field. The iconic ivory and blue color scheme is cleverly employed in the delicately pattern field, the traditional guard bands and the sophisticated main borders. This archetypal antique Chinese rug features a graceful open composition and a restrained color palette that flatters the traditional botanical decorations that give this rug its distinctive appearance.
