About the Item

The most recognizable rugs from the 1920s and 1930s are Chinese Rugs made by Walter Nichols. These Nichols rugs, as they came to be known, were primarily made during the Art Deco movement in the early 20th Century. They were usually made of wool and silk and depicted floral designs in very rich, bold colors like magenta, turquoise, emerald, canary and ruby. They either had a very thick border or none at all. Nichols specialized in a mechanized wool spinning technique that produced a very thick strand - ideal for rugs. He was inspired by the works of many Art Deco artists and began to incorporate some classic deco motifs into his designs. Nichols rugs became wildly popular in the Art Deco era - they were luxurious and exotic - the epitome of Art Deco style. One of a Kind!
