About the Item

Antique European Fragment Botanical Rug Doris Leslie Blau Size: 2'4" × 5'2" (71 × 157 cm) This antique European rug fragment from the early 20th century showcases a captivating convergence of classical opulence and painterly design. Woven circa 1900, the piece encapsulates the rich decorative spirit of the Belle Époque period, presenting a lush botanical aesthetic through its densely knotted wool surface. At the heart of the design lies a vivid crimson and chestnut medallion, adorned with interlacing floral and scroll motifs, framed symmetrically by stylized blossoms in creamy ivory and soft golden hues. The warm terracotta field is animated by curvilinear flourishes and organic vines, punctuated with accents of deep teal that provide a striking contrast, elevating the vibrancy of the palette. Despite its modest size, this fragment possesses a bold visual impact and reveals remarkable craftsmanship. The texture is dense and tactile, with a visibly tight weave and a slightly worn patina that adds historical depth and character. Subtle abrash variations and areas of gentle fading underscore the piece’s authentic age and charm. Ideal for framing, layering, or use as a decorative floor accent, this fragment bridges European elegance with time-worn beauty. Whether styled in a traditional setting or as a contrasting element in a modern interior, it serves as a timeless testament to the artistry of antique European textile design. 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.
