About the Item
Antique Ukrainian Wool Rug
Size: 7'2" × 9'2" (218 × 279 cm)
This splendid antique Ukrainian wool rug from the 1880s is a prime example of Bessarabian textile artistry, merging rustic charm with classical European elegance. Woven in the flat-weave technique typical of the region, the rug showcases a romantic floral composition, rendered in a sumptuous palette of warm earth tones, rich burgundies, soft creams, and golden ochres.
At the heart of the design is a graceful bouquet of blooming roses, peonies, and wildflowers, artfully arranged against a deep espresso-brown field. The tonal background enhances the naturalistic shading and dimensionality of the blossoms, which appear almost painterly in their subtle gradations. Encircling the central medallion is a lush floral wreath that flows outward into a coordinating border, giving the rug both structure and softness.
Crafted entirely of wool, this piece exemplifies both durability and beauty. The rug’s time-softened hues and gentle wear lend it a soulful patina, making it an ideal addition to interiors that value heritage and authenticity. Whether placed in a traditional space or layered into an eclectic setting, this Ukrainian treasure tells a story of craftsmanship and cultural refinement that continues to resonate more than a century later.
Expertly curated by Doris Leslie Blau, this rare rug is a testament to centuries of weaving artistry. Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
