Brazilian Mid 20th Century Floral Wool Rug

About the Item

This exquisite Brazilian rug, dating from the 1960s to the 1970s, is a captivating piece that effortlessly blends vintage charm with intricate craftsmanship. Measuring a generous size, 266 x 180 cm (4,78 Sq meters), it features a lush, floral pattern in shades of blue, delicately embroidered against a cream background. Each flower, stem, and leaf has been meticulously crafted to create a balanced and harmonious design, providing a sense of movement and depth across the rug’s surface. The rug’s tag on the back confirms its Brazilian origin, proudly stating it was “Made in Brazil.” This detail highlights the authenticity of the piece, aligning with a period when Brazilian artisans were creating high-quality, handwoven textiles inspired by traditional Portuguese motifs and color palettes. The intricate stitching and the considerable number of knots per square inch showcase the artistry involved in its making, ensuring durability and resilience over the years. The rich blue tones combined with softer hues make this rug an ideal choice for adding a touch of sophistication to any room, be it a living area, library, or study. The floral design, though bold, maintains a classic elegance, allowing it to blend seamlessly with both modern and antique furnishings. This rug is not just a decorative item; it’s a piece of Brazilian history and craftsmanship, perfect for collectors or anyone looking to bring a unique vintage touch to their space.
