A modern second quarter 20th-century Chinese oriental rug, the cinnamon field with an overall pattern of floral roundels and leafy vinery with delicate scrolling interlace beneath an overblown contrasting polychromatic bouquet of sensuous blossoms and delicate vinery near the lower right corner. These tend to be more open and spacious than the antique oriental rugs from Western Asia. Maintained mostly in blues, golds, ivories, and beiges, with classical symbols of longevity, elaborate lotus blossoms, chrysanthemums, cloud-band motifs, foo-dogs, and birds, antique Chinese vintage rugs are frequently visible in paintings from as early as the T'ang Period. In contrast to earlier Chinese antique rugs, the twentieth-century Chinese Art Deco rugs can be quite spare in design and quite radical in color, catering to the western taste shaped by the birth of the modernist movement. They are often comprised of geometric or abstract patterns. The most recognizable rugs from the 1920s and 1930 were made by Walter Nichols – the American who manufactured deco carpets in Tientsin.

Samarkand rugs are distinguished by a unique fashion integrating numerous influences from various weaving schools, including Persian, Turkish Chinese, and Indian. Such diversity stems from the fact that the oasis city used to be located at the famous Silk Route, at the junction of different oriental cultures, and absorbed a bit from each and every one of them resulting in one and only, free-spirited Samarkand style. Here, we have an excellent example of this wonderful eclecticism. This vintage rug bears typically to Samarkand, bold circular medallions with a special rectangular medallion in the middle. The main field is finished with Chinese-styled corner ornaments but it also incorporates Middle-Eastern motifs, such as crosses, rhombuses, and flower heads. The series of borders is equally surprising yet it definitely stays in the spirit of the main design. In terms of the color palette, the antique rug relays on classic solutions, combining a caramel background with a dark brown shade of the pattern. This versatile and toned composition will without doubt match a wide variety of interior décors, from classic to modern. All the more, due to its masterful hand execution of the finest wool in accordance with traditional weaving techniques, the Samarkand rug will serve its owners for generations just as it already has for over 60 years.

The Anatolian plateau is where the weaving of oriental carpets originated. Rich in tradition and pride, each of the villages of the area produced a certain design and colors that the neighbors rarely copied. These Antiques were largely illustrated in historical European paintings. Their bold geometrical designs and soft colors made them favorites of interior designers.
