About the Item

Vintage French Art Deco Rug Size: 8'10" × 12'0" (269 × 365 cm) This exceptional French Art Deco rug from the 1930s is a striking example of the era’s bold, modernist aesthetic, blending architectural rhythm with abstract expression. Rendered in a striking palette of crimson, terracotta, ochre, indigo, cobalt, and lavender, the rug’s composition is a dynamic interplay of geometric forms — half-moons, stacked bars, gridded squares, stepped motifs, and curvilinear arches converge in perfect visual harmony. The design exhibits remarkable symmetry, anchored by a monumental central medallion that echoes throughout the field in layered repetition. The symmetrical arrangement is further emphasized by the rhythmic progression of shapes across the vertical and horizontal axes, creating a sense of both order and kinetic energy. The use of modulated stripes and interlocking patterns reflects the influence of the Machine Age, while the handwoven texture retains a distinctly artisanal quality. Woven in France circa 1930, this Art Deco carpet exemplifies the transitional spirit of the period, bridging the decorative elegance of pre-war design with the bold experimentation of modernism. It would make a commanding centerpiece in a contemporary or classic interior, particularly in a space that values the synergy between art, design, and architecture. This exquisite rug is part of the diversified Doris Leslie Blau selections, renowned for its curated selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs. Doris Leslie Blau offers a vast selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs in a wide range of styles, materials, and price points, making fine textile art accessible to both collectors and designers alike.
