Vintage Chinese Art Deco Floral Ivory Hand-Knotted Wool Carpet BB6723 14'10" × 18'8" $130,000

This vintage Chinese Art Deco carpet, woven circa 1900, comes from China and reflects the refined early 20th-century rug tradition that fused Eastern ornament with modern decorative clarity and generous scale.

A cool blue ground supports scrolling botanical stems, leafy tendrils, and two balanced round medallions, while a larger circular emblem at center and matching roundels above and below create a measured vertical rhythm. The ivory ornament stands out crisply against the field, lending the composition both softness and definition. The mirrored layout leaves enough open ground to let the pattern breathe rather than crowd the room.

An ivory border with looping vine motifs and slender floral tracery frames the interior like a textile picture plane. Hand-knotted in wool, the carpet has the supple texture and visual calm prized in Chinese Art Deco rugs, and its restrained palette of ivory, pale sand, and slate blue works especially well in traditional, transitional, or layered contemporary rooms without losing character.

This remarkable vintage rug comes from the curated collection at Doris Leslie Blau, renowned for its discerning eye for quality, artistry, and timeless design. Doris Leslie Blau presents an exceptional range of vintage, antique, and contemporary rugs suited to both classic and modern interiors.
