About the Item

Vintage French Art Deco Rug Size: 9'10" × 12'7" (299 × 383 cm) A striking example of early Modernist textile design, this vintage French Art Deco rug from the 1930s showcases a masterful composition of overlapping geometric forms and tonal gradients. The design is built from a sophisticated arrangement of rectangles, stripes, and grids, rendered in a palette of soft beiges, muted greens, sun-faded yellows, and warm ochres, all accented with vibrant strokes of terracotta and burnt orange. The pattern conveys a sense of architectural abstraction, with elements that appear to shift and recede, giving the composition a subtle sense of depth and movement. The deliberate asymmetry and clean linearity speak directly to the Art Deco period’s fascination with structure, order, and modern progress. Executed with great precision, the transitions between shades are smooth and controlled, revealing the weaver’s skill in creating tonal harmony and visual rhythm. The texture is dense and plush, offering both visual richness and tactile comfort. Woven in France at the height of the Art Deco era, this rug reflects the innovative spirit of the time and the influence of contemporary art and architecture. It would have complemented the interiors of progressive homes of the period, harmonizing with the work of modernist architects and designers. A rare and refined decorative statement from the Doris Leslie Blau Collection, this vintage rug is not only a functional textile but a visual embodiment of 20th-century design innovation. 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.
