About the Item

Vintage French Art Deco Rug Size: 7'9" × 11'7" (236 × 353 cm). This exceptional vintage French Art Deco rug from the 1930s exemplifies the geometric sophistication and stylized abstraction emblematic of the period. Likely crafted during the apex of the Art Deco movement in France, the rug features a striking architectural symmetry that radiates from the center outward, with a balanced arrangement of blocks and lines rendered in a harmonious yet bold palette. The design is centered around a stepped medallion form, composed of muted rose, peach, ochre, and cinnamon tones, interlocked within rectilinear forms of tan, taupe, and warm beige. These color blocks are overlaid with stylized linework—suggestive of landscape motifs or architectural elevation studies—evoking the influence of early Modernism and machine-age aesthetics. The rug's color story is particularly evocative: the warm terra-cotta reds and golden oranges glow against a grounding field of soft neutrals, creating a dynamic yet composed visual rhythm. A restrained border dissolves into the field, creating a seamless continuation of the design without disrupting the spatial illusion. Hand-knotted in wool, the piece retains its original luster and texture, with visible evidence of its craftsmanship in the looped and cut pile. Its condition and scale make it ideal for a modern interior that values history, elegance, and bold design statements. Showcasing the finest materials and patterns, this design is part of the expansive Doris Leslie Blau collection, renowned for its rare and unique finds across a wide range of prices.
