This hand-painted carpet design provides a glimpse at the artistic process behind the Art Deco rugs produced in China in the 1920s and ‘30s. Half sketch, half painting, the composition symmetrically arranges bamboo boughs on an open field, keeping with the refined minimalism that captivated consumers in China and abroad. The carpet design was developed for H.C. Augustesen, one of many foreign manufacturers lured to Tientsin, China to produce rugs for clamoring markets in Europe and America.

“Over the years, I’ve incorporated many pieces from PAGODA RED into my designs. Not only can they balance new furnishings (and often new construction) by feeling more established, but the pieces emanate a sense of rich history, often leaving you wondering where they were in a previous life. These beautiful pieces carefully hand-selected by the team at PAGODA RED, coupled with their unbelievable customer service, make them a must-have for any home.”
