Doris Leslie Blau Mid-20th Century Handmade Vintage Rag Rug
About the Item
Mid-20th Century handmade vintage rag rug.
Size: 7'0" × 11'10" (213 × 360 cm)
Color: Beige, black, blue, orange, red, yellow.
An exquisite example of traditional handcraft with an expressive Bohemian spirit, this vintage rag rug—measuring 12 feet by 7 feet—offers a rich tapestry of color and cultural storytelling. Handwoven in wool, the piece boasts an intricate pattern of small diamond medallions arranged in an uninterrupted lattice across the field, each filled with snowflake-like geometric motifs. These individual shapes vary subtly in tone, contributing to a dynamic surface that feels vibrant yet harmonious.
The palette is a stunning array of deep, saturated hues—predominantly crimson, aubergine, ochre, and ivory—interwoven with accents of brick orange and muted lavender. This color composition infuses the rug with warmth and rhythmic movement, while the use of natural dyes and age-related patina adds authenticity and depth.
A series of richly decorated borders frame the central design, incorporating stylized tribal and symbolic patterns with a distinctly Eastern aesthetic. These borders use contrasting scales and colors to anchor the composition and emphasize its handcrafted integrity.
True to the ethos of Bohemian interiors, this rug celebrates individuality, cultural blending, and artisanal heritage. It is not only a functional textile but also a statement piece that bridges folk tradition with eclectic modernity—perfect for those seeking to ground their space in texture, color, and soulful craftsmanship.
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.
