About the Item
Authentic Early 20th century Russian Bessarabian carpet
Size: 5'5" × 8'10" (165 × 269 cm)
This exquisite early 20th-century Russian Bessarabian carpet exemplifies the distinctive artistry of Eastern European textile traditions. Handwoven circa 1920, the rug features a deep brown field adorned with eight prominent blue geometric flowerheads, each outlined in vibrant orange. These central motifs are interspersed with small, multicolored diamond shapes, creating a harmonious and balanced composition. A pale outer stripe frames the design, providing a subtle contrast that enhances the rug's visual appeal.
Bessarabian rugs are renowned for their unique blend of metropolitan sophistication and provincial charm. Unlike their Western European counterparts, these rugs often showcase less formal designs that achieve an elegant equilibrium between grace and strength. This particular piece reflects that balance, making it a sought-after example among collectors and interior designers alike.
Crafted from high-quality wool, the rug boasts a flat-weave construction that ensures durability while maintaining a soft texture underfoot. Its versatile color palette—featuring shades of blue, charcoal, green, red, and yellow—allows it to complement a variety of interior styles, from traditional to contemporary.
Whether displayed as a floor covering or a wall tapestry, this antique Bessarabian carpet offers a timeless aesthetic that brings warmth and character to any space.
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.
