78317 Antique Chinese Art Deco Rug, 09'00 x 11'09.

Maximalist style meets exotic elegance in this hand knotted wool antique Chinese Art Deco rug. The decorative floral design and saturated jewel-tone colors woven into this piece work together creating a bold, rich ambiance. The eye-catching Chinese Deco rug features a color-blocked field and border scheme festooned with large, glorious sprays of flowers. Lotuses, peonies, chrysanthemums, and plum blossoms elegantly spread across the composition, breaking across the borders and field, creating a sense of splendor and vitality than cannot be contained.

The colorful, intricate floral motifs showcase lotuses, peonies, chrysanthemums, and plum flowers blossoming in a swirl of tantalizing vinery. This ensemble of flowers, when appearing together, represents the Four Seasons, while each of the flowers carries its own meaning in Chinese culture. The lotus, the flower of summer, symbolizes purity and perfection, since its clean vibrant blooms emerge from the mud of swamps and marshes. Peonies, the flower of spring, represent unparalleled beauty and honor; they have long been regarded as a symbol of wealth. Chrysanthemums, the flower of autumn, are associated with long life and a golden retirement; the dried petals of the flower immersed in wine were once thought to bring longevity to those who drank it. Plum blossoms, the flower of winter, represent fortitude and resilience, since the long-lived tree blooms brightly during the cold of winter.

Decadent beauty combined with refined elegance, this antique Chinese Art Deco rug is the answer to elevated traditional furnishings. Perfect for a large entertaining space, hotel lobby, lounge area, drawing room, country club, owners retreat, dining room, living room, bedroom, home office or library, study, studio, or formal sitting room.
