Vintage Chinese Floral Navy Blue Hand-Knotted Wool Rug BB9063 7'8" × 8'9" $28,000

This antique Chinese hand-knotted wool rug, circa 1920s, reflects the refined weaving traditions of China with a quietly modern sensibility. Its navy blue ground is handled with a painterly, striated quality that softens the surface and gives the piece an atmospheric depth.

Instead of a busy allover pattern, the composition relies on a loose five-point arrangement of circular floral cartouches. Blush, ivory, and pale blue blossoms appear against the deep field, creating small moments of color that read almost like accents of painted porcelain. The medallions are spaced with restraint, allowing the abstract floral design to breathe.

The result is a traditional Chinese rug that feels calm and architectural, yet never static. Hand-knotted wool adds a gentle texture and a supple, tactile finish, making this vintage floral medallion rug especially effective in contemporary, transitional, or layered interiors.

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.
