Vintage Chinese Floral Light Gray Hand-Knotted Wool Rug BB8630 8'8" × 11'5" $26,000

This vintage Chinese hand-knotted wool rug reflects the decorative elegance of China’s weaving tradition, interpreted through an Art Deco lens. Its composition balances restraint and ornament, making it a compelling example of vintage Chinese rug design.

A light gray field is patterned with a delicate lattice of radiating floral forms, creating a calm, tailored surface across the open ground. At the center, an irregular teal-blue reserve adds depth and contrast, while the corners bloom with painterly bouquets in coral, pink, saffron, blue, and fresh green. Ribbon-like vines drift outward, softening the geometry with a looser, more lyrical rhythm.

The result is a floral vintage rug that feels both serene and expressive, suited to interiors that favor layered texture and subtle color. Its hand-knotted wool construction and graceful abstract-botanical pattern bring a refined decorative note to contemporary, transitional, or classic rooms.
