Art Deco Chinese
Art Deco Chinese rugs, made primarily in the 1920s and 1930s, are celebrated for their bold fusion of traditional Chinese motifs with the modern, geometric spirit of the Art Deco movement. These rugs often feature luxurious wool piles dyed in rich jewel tones—deep blues, purples, magentas, golds, and emerald greens—set against contrasting open fields. Their designs range from minimal, asymmetrical layouts with large expanses of solid color to vibrant scenes of pagodas, dragons, phoenixes, lotus flowers, and abstract cloud forms, all stylized with crisp outlines and striking color contrasts. The rugs embrace spaciousness, asymmetry, and a distinctly modern aesthetic while maintaining a connection to Chinese symbolism, making them both timeless decorative pieces and reflections of early 20th-century global design trends.
