About the Item

During the Art Deco period many designers commissioned their patterns to the city looms located in Tianjin through companies such as Nichols Company. Some designs, such as this one, show a combination of European sensibility together with a Chinese influence, such as these floral blossoms which delicately embellish the four corners of the oatmeal coloured background. Arranging the pattern by leaving an empty center is a characteristic styleme of the Art Deco period, as it allows to place furnishing at the center without obstructing the beauty of the rug's design. The result is a sturdy weaving with a gamut of highly decorative colours expressing refinement and timeless elegance, surely the ideal backdrop for dining rooms and sofa areas.
