Chinese Art Deco Vintage Geometric Classic Taupe – Hand-Knotted Wool Rug BB5399 13'7" × 17'3" $60,000
$60,000
This striking Chinese Art Deco rug from the 1920s presents a bold and modern composition that exemplifies the East-meets-West spirit of the Art Deco era. Characterized by geometric abstraction and stylized ornamentation, the rug features a dramatic interplay of angular shapes, curved lines, and a distinctly asymmetrical design sensibility.
The field is dominated by intersecting diamonds, stepped motifs, and wave-like stripes that suggest motion and dimensionality. At the center, two green lozenge medallions hold abstracted foliate motifs—subtle references to traditional Chinese symbolism interpreted through a modernist lens. The surrounding elements, including grid-like patterns and zigzag borders, create a sense of dynamic balance throughout the composition.
Executed in a palette of earthy taupes, camel, slate gray, jade green, teal, and black, the rug maintains a sense of sophistication while offering visual intrigue. The handwoven wool pile lends a soft texture and gentle luster, enhancing the design’s depth and making it well-suited for both contemporary and traditional interiors.
This piece is a fine example of early 20th-century Chinese Deco weaving, merging refined craftsmanship with avant-garde design to create a timeless decorative statement.
