About the Item
1940s Portuguese Needlepoint Rug with Floral Trellis Design Doris Leslie Blau
Size: 18'0" × 22'3" (548 × 678 cm)
This antique Portuguese needlepoint rug from the 1940s radiates understated charm and graphic elegance, combining the artisanal richness of traditional craftsmanship with a modern decorative appeal. Characterized by its crisply organized layout and playful floral accents, the piece offers a refreshing and sophisticated design that feels both timeless and versatile.
Set against a deep, nearly black background, the rug’s surface is structured into a grid of squares formed by stylized leafy garlands that intersect in rosette-like blossoms. Each crossing is adorned with a delicate six-petal flower in soft shades of cream, apricot, and pale yellow—adding a subtle touch of color and warmth to the composition. The symmetry of the design evokes the feeling of a botanical trellis, lending structure without sacrificing softness.
Handcrafted using traditional Portuguese needlepoint techniques, the rug features a flatwoven texture and a tight, durable weave typical of this regional style. The precision of the stitchwork and the consistency of the pattern demonstrate a high level of skill and attention to detail.
With its geometric clarity softened by floral motifs, this piece bridges the line between classical ornamentation and mid-20th-century decorative sensibilities. It would be a striking addition to both traditional interiors and more minimalist or modern settings, bringing refinement and visual rhythm to any space.
A rare piece from the Doris Leslie Blau Collection, this rug exemplifies superior artistry and tradition. 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.
