Wool
240 x 150
Hello, this item is a hand-knotted Chinese wool rug, featuring a central floral arrangement within a vase framed by an arch, surrounded by decorative geometric and floral borders. The wool material, as stated in the provenance, suggests this rug belongs to the category of mid-20th-century Chinese export carpets, popular between the 1920s and 1970s. The colors and motifs are consistent with Art Deco influences often seen in Chinese rugs produced for Western markets, particularly from the Tianjin region. The dimensions listed—240 cm by 150 cm—support its classification as a room or hallway carpet rather than a small accent rug.
Given its aesthetic and material, as well as signs of light wear visible in the detailed images, the rug would likely be valued on the decorative market rather than among collectors of early Chinese textiles. Rugs of this style, in similar condition, typically achieve a fair market value between $300 and $600 USD in general auctions and online sales platforms.
