About the Item
Vintage French Art Deco Rug
Size: 9'0" × 12'0" (274 × 365 cm)
This striking French Art Deco rug, dating to circa 1945, exemplifies the confident geometries and abstract elegance that defined the post-war European design ethos. Its layout reflects a dynamic interplay between structure and spontaneity—an aesthetic hallmark of late Art Deco style. The overall symmetry is anchored by mirrored corner motifs that frame a large open field, allowing the intricate border and corner ornamentation to command visual attention.
Woven in a lush wool pile, the rug features a captivating palette of dusky rose, rich burgundy, muted coral, dusty peach, and faded aqua, softening the sharp geometric patterns into something both bold and inviting. Abstract architectural elements—some reminiscent of stepped ziggurats, stylized flora, and musical forms—emerge from the corners toward the center, giving the piece a sense of movement and spatial depth.
The border is composed of a sequence of stylized medallions and angular tribal motifs, subtly nodding to North African and Anatolian inspirations, yet thoroughly reinterpreted through a French modernist lens. The high-quality craftsmanship and sophisticated color gradations reflect the refinement typical of French weaving during the period.
This rug would make a statement in a contemporary or eclectic interior, especially where its artistic value and vintage authenticity can shine—be it in a loft, library, or curated living space. A beautiful synthesis of design history and enduring craftsmanship.
A remarkable vintage rug, from Doris Leslie Blau Collection, features a timeless elegance. 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.
