It features an impressive display of lotuses, peonies, chrysanthemums, plum blossoms, and leafy tendrils in two opposite corners of the dark royal blue field.  The ensemble of the four flowers is used to represent 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 flowers, the flower of winter, represent fortitude and resilience, since the long-lived tree blooms brightly during the cold of winter. A flowering vase appears in the lower left corner of the field, which typically represents eternal harmony, while the butterflies scattered throughout are seen to symbolize happiness and longevity. The lavish, sumptuous color palette emanates a sense of exuberance and luxury. With its depth of meaning, gorgeous hues, and intricate detailing, this antique Chinese Art Deco rug would bring a touch of Jazz Age splendor to any space.
