Beautifully Artistic Antique English Art Deco Design Wilton Rug, Circa Date: 1920. The antique English Wilton carpets are known for their velvety pile, rich colors and beautifully rendered design patterns. This geometric design is a classic from the 1920 and is an excellent example of the beauty of Art Deco rugs. This exciting antique English rug was artfully woven using shades of earthy browns in a way that creates a three-dimensional effect. The rug colors are blended using a crosshatching technique that allows the tones to fade from darkest to lightest. That gives this England made rug an almost watercolor effect.

Hand-knotted in wool originating from Turkey circa 1950-1960, this vintage rug connotes one of the most collectible mid-century Khotan Samarkand rug designs we’ve seen in our collection so far, emphasizing the meandering borders enfolding the notably unique medallion-style field pattern in similar earth tones against a gold background. Connoisseurs will note the use of the rich crimson red as an accent to the more prevalent beige-brown and pink hues, an additionally uncommon feature in this particular classic rug family likely meant to further emphasize these unique symbols and the regal colorway background they enjoy.

About the Collection: Antique rugs have been in Josh’s resume since he began in the industry almost 40 years ago when he was already recognized for one of the largest oriental rug collections in the United States. Each piece in the internationally recognized volume was hand picked for rarity, and of course aesthetic and beauty, now complementing one of the widest varieties of the Persian rug and Turkish rug collections with the utmost attention to individuality and care. Because of Josh’s position in the wholesale rug industry he’s been responsible for promoting a number of collections throughout history, from breathtaking signature Tabriz, Sultanabad, Kerman Lavar, Agra, and Oushak classics to the more unsung jewels of the luxury industry. Vintage has also been synonymous with who we are since our beginning, particularly for our unparalleled Kilim collection, but with the rise of Mid Century collection the term vintage carpet has become very popular—especially exciting because often times many of the vintage carpets have also been treated, washed, dyed over, sheared, and modified—and has created a very successful category. We’re especially proud of our vintage Kilims and Turkish rugs curated for our expansive collection of both area rugs and runners alike. Rug & Kilim maintains our own facilities for cleaning and restoration exclusively for carpets we’ve sold to ensure their lasting beauty and care long about a piece leaves our collection.

An early 20th century French Art Deco rug, the open rich red field with a delicate linear medallion form drawn in ivory, suggestive of a snowflake within a solid midnight blue border. The Art Deco style owes its name to the first major exhibition of decorative arts to be held after the First World War: L’Exposition Internationale des Arts Decoratifs et Industriels Modernes held in Paris in 1925. The supreme elegance of the custom-made interiors at the event set an example for interior designers the world over. Inspired by these innovative aesthetic ideas, artists, designers, craftsmen, and manufacturers from across Europe and America produced a wide range of modern pioneering patterns that delivered a dramatic change of style to furnishings in general, and early 20th-century antique oriental rugs and carpets in particular. Decorative arts of this period, sometimes known as the Machine Age, are characterized by a streamlined appearance. Art Deco rugs and carpets woven from the mid-1920s through the 1930s reflect this style.
