Channeling the famed Walter Nichols style of the 1920s and 1930s, this hand knotted wool antique Chinese Art Deco rug creates a sense of splendor and vitality than cannot be contained. A variety of flower species bloom from a gnarled tree branch in three corners blossoming in a swirl of tantalizing vinery. The ensemble of flowers represented are lotuses, peonies, chrysanthemums, and plum blossoms, which, when appearing together, represent the four seasons. 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. Meanwhile, two butterflies, a symbol of joy, are delicately fluttering within the composition. Natural abrash gradations authenticate this antique Chinese Peking rug while adding dimension and visual interest to the understated yet impactful design.
