About the Item

Vintage Indian Dhurrie Rug Doris Leslie Blau Size: 13'10" × 16'6" (421 × 502 cm) Circa: 1940 Age: Vintage Color: Beige, Blue, Taupe, Yellow Origin: India Style: Dhurrie This stunning vintage Indian Dhurrie rug captures the essence of timeless artistry with a composition that is both delicate and distinctive. Woven in a soft, pastel palette of ivory, blush, pale yellow, and powder blue, the design balances traditional motifs with a modern sense of restraint. The centerpiece of the rug features symmetrical arrangements of stylized floral medallions and tribal iconography, rendered in subtle gradations of ochre and beige. These motifs appear almost ghostlike against the light field, giving the rug a soft, ethereal quality. The border is richly decorated with an interlocking floral and vine pattern in muted clay, maize, and blue tones—offering a gentle contrast that frames the composition without overwhelming it. Crafted from flat-woven cotton, this Dhurrie reflects the exceptional hand-weaving traditions of India, known for their durability and understated beauty. Its large scale and neutral tones make it a versatile choice for both traditional and contemporary interiors, lending warmth, texture, and heritage to any space. Rich in heritage and artistry, this handmade rug exemplifies the high standards of Doris Leslie Blau’s curated pieces. With a wide range of prices, Doris Leslie Blau makes exceptional rugs accessible to collectors and designers alike.
