Chinese / 25959

This Chinese antique rug measures 2' 5" x 5' 1" and presents a restrained, graphic composition anchored by mirrored guardian forms, a central vessel, and curling floral lines. The purple field has softened with age, allowing cream, white, and blue details to sit in a quiet, weathered balance. A narrow border in warm tones frames the scene with clarity, while the surface shows medium wear, fading, and edge fray that lend it a lived-in tactility. Circa 1920 - 1940, it carries the composed symmetry and decorative discipline often associated with early 20th-century Chinese weaving.
