Vibrant Chinese Art Deco Rug, Country of Origin: China, Circa Date: 1920 – A deep midnight-blue field and a rose-pink border give this Chinese Art Deco rug an unforgettable color combination. Flowers and winding branches enter from the edges, leaving a generous expanse of blue at the center. Two long-tailed birds perch among the blossoms near the top, while butterflies animate the open field below.
The composition feels like a garden glimpsed at night. Its flowers, birds, and butterflies draw on Chinese decorative traditions, but their dramatic placement and the confident use of empty space give the rug its Art Deco character. The pink border softens the dark ground and offers a useful color to pick up in upholstery, artwork, or a single accent piece.

At 9 ft × 13 ft, this circa 1920 rug has the scale to define a living room or dining room. It would be especially striking with clean-lined furniture, where the blue can ground the space and the garden imagery remains free to be enjoyed.
