Vintage Chinese Art Deco Floral Cream Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug Lotus Design BB8920 10'5" × 17'6" $32,000

Hand-knotted in China during the early twentieth century, this antique Chinese Art Deco wool rug, known as the Lotus Design, pairs refined structure with a softened, timeworn finish. Its open composition gives the piece an airy elegance that feels tailored rather than busy.

A muted beige field is traced with scrolling foliate vines and scattered lotus blossoms, creating a subtle trellis-like rhythm across the surface. Dusty rose, mauve, faded plum, and blue-gray accents are gently dispersed through the drawing, while the distressed handling lends the pattern a graceful, antique-deco patina. A framed inner guard and outer floral border keep the composition balanced.

The hand-knotted wool construction adds warmth and texture, making this vintage Chinese rug especially suited to rooms that benefit from quiet pattern and neutral tones. Its restrained palette and botanical motif bring a composed, decorative layer to living rooms, dining areas, or bedrooms, where Art Deco character can read softly and elegantly.

Curated by Doris Leslie Blau, this vintage rug represents the enduring beauty and craftsmanship that have defined the gallery since its establishment in 1965.
