About the Item
Vintage French Art Deco Rug
Size: 6'5" × 9'3" (195 × 281 cm)
Color: Beige, Green, Lavender, Pink, Taupe
This stunning vintage French Art Deco rug, dating from around 1945, captures the optimism and modernist flair of the post-war decorative arts movement in France. Rendered in a soft, symphonic palette of powdery mauves, celadon greens, warm lilacs, dusty pinks, and serene aquas, the rug offers a dreamlike, almost ethereal composition emblematic of the late Art Deco period's transition into modernism.
At the center lies a radiant medallion formed from concentric circular motifs, which appear almost architectural in structure—like the stylized ceiling of a grand Parisian foyer. Encircling this core, sweeping arches and scalloped forms ripple outward, creating a rhythmic symmetry that balances structure and softness. The handwoven wool pile enhances the tactile richness and gently diffused colors, adding depth and subtle movement to the design.
Abstract yet harmonious, the rug’s composition hints at organic forms—petals, clouds, or waves—filtered through a distinctly Art Deco lens. Gentle lines and geometric symmetry coexist with fluidity, reflecting both precision and freedom. This lyrical tension makes the piece an exemplar of Deco modernist textile design.
Crafted with the meticulous attention to detail characteristic of French ateliers, this rug is not only a decorative object but also a testament to the enduring artistry of early-20th-century European craftsmanship. Whether placed in a minimalist modern interior or a classic setting, it lends an air of sophistication, history, and softness that is both visually striking and timelessly elegant.
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.
