Boccara Hand Knotted Silk Rug in the Style of Ivan da Silva Bruhns, France, 2009

About the Item

A finely hand knotted silk rug by Boccara, designed in homage to the iconic French Art Deco textile artist Ivan da Silva Bruhns. Commissioned in 2009, the rug features a strong modernist composition of geometric forms, reflecting Bruhns’ distinctive early 20th-century design vocabulary. The colour palette is sophisticated and intentionally bold—deep red and French navy dominate, softened by dove grey and cream accents. Executed entirely in silk, the weave has a luminous quality, enhancing both the visual and tactile impact. Measuring 282 cm by 113 cm (approximately 9.25 ft by 3.7 ft), the piece is well-suited as a gallery runner or for a transitional space where its proportions and detail can be appreciated. Condition: Good overall condition with two noted imperfections. One area of the navy field bears a surface stain—likely from an adhesive spill—which may respond to professional restoration. There are also a few pulled threads in the silk pile, consistent with previous use. The rug remains structurally sound. A collectible contemporary production with clear Art Deco lineage, ideal for collectors and designers seeking a refined modernist textile rooted in decorative arts history.
