About the Item
Large Vintage Chinese Art Deco carpet
Size: 14'10" × 18'8" (452 × 568 cm).
This striking early 20th-century Chinese Art Deco carpet masterfully blends Eastern symbolism with Western elegance, epitomizing the distinctive aesthetic of the period. Woven circa 1900, the piece presents a rare and harmonious interplay of artistic restraint and expressive flourish.
Rendered in a luminous palette of celadon blue and pale ivory, the design centers around symmetrical floral scrollwork, punctuated by iconic medallions and mystical roundels. Each corner of the field contains circular motifs echoing Chinese cosmological symbols, while the center medallion draws the eye inward with stylized botanic forms that hint at eternal renewal and harmony. Delicate vines and meandering tendrils bloom freely across the field, imparting a sense of motion and lyrical rhythm.
The refined border is enclosed in painterly florals with subtle curling tendrils and traditional fretwork, grounding the composition and framing it like a fine porcelain panel. The contrast between the soft, painterly brush of the foliage and the more formalized geometric framing underscores the sophisticated balance typical of Chinese Art Deco design.
Hand-knotted in high-quality wool, this carpet retains its integrity and character over a century later. Its muted palette and graceful design make it exceptionally versatile—ideal for interiors that favor serene, classical beauty or those that juxtapose antique refinement with modern minimalism.
Whether placed in a formal salon or an artistic loft, this vintage Chinese rug is not only a decorative foundation but also a cultural artifact that tells a story of East-meets-West design innovation during the early 1900s.
Showcasing the finest materials and patterns, this design is part of the expansive Doris Leslie Blau collection, renowned for its rare and unique finds across a wide range of prices.
