SOLD
A genuine, antique, hand-knotted, art deco Chinese rug adds color, warmth, sophistication and charm to complement any decor style.
This stunning, oval-shape, room size carpet offers a rare and stunning range of colors. The pastels and jewel tones blend harmoniously, throughout the multilayered floral design.
The rug was diligently hand-knotted in China, c. 1925-1947. It reflects the age, geographic origin, colors, style and techniques associated with Helen Fette, an American entrepreneur who pioneered new dye techniques, invested in Chinese workshops, and guided their carpet design and production processes from the 1920's through 1940's. Around the same time, Walter Nichols, another American entrepreneur, pursued a close parallel path, adding to the variety and popularity of the now famous art deco Chinese carpets.
The rug is in good antique condition, with only a small amount of wear, as shown in the photos and video. It was professionally cleaned in January, 2022, and has been carefully stored since then.DETAILS:

RETURNS
I want you to see the rugs in your home to make sure you like them. In case you don't like them for any reason, I offer an easy return policy.
The 'grace period' for returns depends on how you bought the rugs -
- If you ordered with shipping, without seeing the rug in person first, you get a 30 day return grace period. The 30 day grace period begins when the rug arrives at your address.
- If you picked up the rug from me locally, without shipping, you get a 7 day return grace period. The 7 day grace period begins when you pick up the rug.
You may ship the rug back to me, or drop it off locally by appointment. I will issue a refund for the purchase price, provided that I receive the returned rug within the grace period explained above.
All shipping fees are non-refundable.
I will expect to receive the returned rug in the same condition that I sent it to you. Please make sure that the rug is dry, not damp or wet. Please do not apply any adhesive tape to the front or back of the rug. I will assess any damage on a case-by-case basis, and subtract the value of the damage from your refund.
