The 1900s Rectangle Hand Knotted Pile Blue Antique Wool Rug is a stunning early 20th-century piece that exemplifies the refined aesthetic of Chinese Peking weaving. This antique rug features a deep, saturated indigo field that serves as a dramatic canvas for scattered auspicious symbols, decorative vessels, and scholar's objects. A striking circular medallion in aubergine and tan anchors the design, surrounded by motifs in camel and pale blue tones. Hand-knotted in China with a 0.5-inch wool pile, the rug showcases a beautiful soft patina indicative of its age and quality craftsmanship. Its complex border system includes multiple guard bands and a geometric running dog motif, providing a sophisticated frame for the organic floral elements. This oversized Oriental rug offers historical value and decorative utility, making it a perfect anchor piece for grand reception areas or large dining rooms.
