Jazz your space up with this old being, woven in China during the 1920s. This little Art Deco beauty has everything we love about the era…a calm, open field, graceful botanical motifs, and high quality wool. The warm champagne-ivory field is framed by a rich cobalt blue border that instantly catches your eye, while playful blossoms and flowering branches seem to drift effortlessly across the rug. The tone of the field can show up warmer of cooler, based on how it catches the light.
One of my favorite details is the flowering vase in the center, a traditional Chinese symbol often associated with peace, harmony, and abundance. Around it are scattered floral sprays that feel almost as if they were painted with a brush instead of knotted by hand. The border is filled with delicate scrolling branches, blossoms, and stylized floral forms that give the entire rug a light, airy movement. It’s simple, but incredibly intentional.
The wool is wonderful under hand…dense, weighty, and naturally lanolin-rich with that unmistakable soft sheen only old wool seems to develop over time. As the light moves across it, the pile almost glows.
This is a wonderful piece that can land just about anywhere. In front of a kitchen sink, beside the bed, in a powder room, tucked into an entry, or layered into a collected room that needs one quiet piece with personality.
In good condition with a healthy, even wool pile and only gentle signs of age consistent with a well-loved antique. Supple, luxurious, and full of velvety wool that simply can’t be manufactured.
