This early 20th-century Chinese Art Deco rug features a deep indigo field that draws you in immediately. Around it, several borders add layers of interest: one with a continuous meandering motif, another a slender salmon stripe, and a third decorated with a charming repeat of vases filled with peonies, chrysanthemums, and cherry blossoms. The field itself is scattered with similar vases and auspicious flowers, tying the whole design together with quiet elegance. The colors—various shades of indigo, soft salmon, and warm cream—are thoughtfully balanced and still retain the richness of their vegetable-dyed wool origins. What makes this rug special is how it combines traditional Chinese symbolism with the streamlined, graphic quality of Art Deco. It feels both timeless and fresh, perfect for those who appreciate subtle complexity on the floor or wall.
