Doris Leslie Blau Mid-20th century Spanish Floral Handmade Wool Rug

About the Item

Mid-20th century Spanish floral handmade wool carpet (size adjusted) Size: 12'0" × 15'8" (365 × 477 cm) This vintage Spanish rug showcases the distinct aesthetic of early 20th-century Iberian design with an exuberant color palette and refined patterning. The field is dominated by a soft ivory ground overlaid with a symmetrical layout of stylized floral medallions and leafy vines rendered in muted celadon green and faded rose. These elements are arranged in mirrored formations, lending structure and rhythm to the expansive surface. The border contrasts boldly, woven in saturated brick red with scrolling foliate motifs in pale sage and cream. It frames the central field with a strong visual anchor, emphasizing the rug's classical symmetry and architectural balance. The detailing, particularly the floral latticework and shield-like medallions, evokes Spanish Renaissance and Baroque design influences, often seen in antique Cuenca and Alcaraz carpets. Woven in wool, the rug displays a medium-high pile with subtle variations in tone due to natural fading, enhancing its patina and vintage charm. Its size and elegant proportions make it well-suited for a large room, where it can bring historic character, color, and warmth to both traditional and eclectic interiors. 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.
