Art Deco Rug, China, Early 20th Century — Sleek minimalism and modernist elegance define this striking art deco Chinese carpet. Woven at the height of this antique rug boom in the early years of the twentieth century, the piece boasts rich color, striking contrasts, and classical influences. An elegant cream background provides the base of the carpet. The fringed cream border frames a rich, dark border patterned with a vividly rendered grapevine design, which itself frames sophisticated heart of the piece. A delicate, beautifully unique golden pattern that recalls the shapes of stars and lilies forms a beautiful symmetry throughout the piece, forming a mesmerizing heart. Elegant, striking, and warm, this modernist work of art is a singular decorative statement ideal for any space.
