About the Item

Elegant 1920s French Savonnerie Rug Doris Leslie Blau Size: 11'4" × 17'3" (345 × 525 cm) This exquisite French Savonnerie rug, dating to the 1920s, beautifully exemplifies the revival of 18th-century French decorative arts. Woven with precision and artistry, the rug features a lavish all-over botanical design on a rich black ground, creating an opulent contrast that highlights the intricate floral motifs and classical ornamentation. At the heart of the composition lies a central medallion encircled by garlands of roses, peonies, and acanthus leaves, interlaced with scrolling white ribbons—an homage to Baroque and Rococo aesthetics. The density and naturalism of the floral arrangements lend the piece a sense of movement and depth rarely seen in decorative floor art. A series of elaborate cornucopias brimming with blossoms accent the corners and borders, while stylized cartouches with painterly floral vignettes balance the rhythm of the design. The lush palette—comprising soft greens, antique ivory, blush pink, gold, and coral—is set brilliantly against the dark backdrop, enhancing its theatrical elegance. Handwoven from fine wool, this Savonnerie rug reflects the highest traditions of French craftsmanship. It evokes the grandeur of châteaux interiors and offers timeless sophistication for both classical and transitional spaces. A rare piece from the Doris Leslie Blau Collection, this rug exemplifies superior artistry and tradition. 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.
