Chinese Vintage Floral Soft Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug Lotus Design BB8426 5'10" × 10'2" $43,000

This vintage Chinese hand-knotted wool rug reflects the region’s refined weaving tradition, combining a soft beige ground with a disciplined navy border and a quietly decorative floral layout.

Across the field, an allover botanical pattern unfolds in ivory and pale cream, where lotus-inspired blossoms, scrolling vines, and foliate details are arranged in a measured trellis-like rhythm. The low-contrast palette keeps the composition light and breathable, allowing the motifs to read as a continuous surface rather than a heavy medallion. That balance of order and softness gives the rug its distinctive chinoiserie character.

A rich navy frame sharpens the edges and introduces welcome depth, while a slim light blue guard border adds a cool note between field and surround. Elegant and adaptable, this Chinese floral rug brings a tailored layer of pattern to traditional rooms, transitional settings, and interiors that favor subtle texture over high contrast. It can soften architecture without feeling ornate, making it useful in entryways and dining spaces.

Part of the expansive Doris Leslie Blau collection, this vintage rug reflects the gallery's dedication to preserving exceptional craftsmanship and distinctive design traditions. Its character, patina, and artistry make it a sophisticated addition to thoughtfully curated interiors.
