Hand knotted in wool originating from China circa 1920, this antique rug connotes a Peking Art Deco design in a rich traditional pallet of beige and brown colorways, with subtle notes of taupe gray gracefully drawing the eye to the refinement of the pattern in field and border alike. Designers will note the near-perfect square dimensions of this 5’9x5’11 piece lending to its versatility, likewise connoisseurs will remark the emphasis of cloudband and lotus motifs in the medallion, its respective corner spandrels, and the inner border, all of which sport a curvilinear beauty in juxtaposition to the more pronounced rectilinear Deco elements of the piece. A tasteful abrash radiates subtle from the field background and richer brown guard border in kind, though collectors will note the near-pristine condition of this Art Deco rug ideal to designers and archivists seeking an Oriental rug with the most idyllic traits of the Peking rug family.
About the Collection: Antique rugs have been in Josh’s resume since he began in the industry almost 40 years ago when he was already recognized for one of the largest oriental rug collections in the United States. Each piece in the internationally recognized volume was hand picked for rarity, and of course aesthetic and beauty, now complementing one of the widest varieties of Persian rug and Turkish rug collections with the utmost attention to individuality and care. Because of Josh’s position in the wholesale rug industry he’s been responsible for promoting a number of collections throughout history, from breathtaking signature Tabriz, Sultanabad, Kerman Lavar, Agra, and Oushak classics to the more unsung jewels of the luxury industry.
Vintage has also been synonymous with who we are since our beginning, particularly for our unparalleled Kilim collection, but with the rise of Mid Century collection the term vintage carpet has become very popular—especially exciting because often times many of the vintage carpets have also been treated, washed, dyed over, sheared, and modified—and has created a very successful category. We’re especially very proud of our vintage Kilims and Turkish rugs curated for our expansive collection of both area rugs and runners alike.
Rug & Kilim maintains our own facilities for cleaning and restoration exclusively for carpets we’ve sold to ensure their lasting beauty and care long after a piece leaves our collection. less
