The Antique Wool Purple / Lavender Mauve Red Rust Hand Knotted Pile Rug is an exceptional example of early 20th-century weaving from the Art Deco era. Hand-knotted in China from high-quality wool, this rectangular rug features a large, open field in a sophisticated smoky taupe or lavender mauve hue. The design is framed by a dramatic, wide border in deep rust-purple, intricately adorned with stylized Chinoiserie elements like cascading wisteria vines and blooming lotus flowers. With a plush 0.5-inch pile height and a beautiful sheen, this antique piece from the 1920s offers a commanding presence. Its solid color field and floral border provide a serene yet detailed aesthetic, making it a significant textile artifact perfect for anchoring grand interior spaces.
