About the Item
Modern Oversized Bessarabian Design Flat-Weave Rug designed by Doris Leslie Blau
Size: 15'1" × 24'10" (459 × 756 cm)
A masterful fusion of European tradition and contemporary execution, this modern oversized Bessarabian design rug is a compelling reinterpretation of 19th-century Eastern European textile artistry. Woven in China, this monumental flat-weave spans an impressive 25 by 15 feet, transforming any large interior with its striking presence and graphic floral opulence.
The rug’s design is a bold homage to classic Bessarabian kilims, known for their distinctive floral motifs and decorative richness. At its core lies a mesmerizing pattern of large-scale medallions—eight-lobed rosettes surrounded by delicate vine scrolls and blooming petals—each one symmetrically repeated across the field like a flowering mosaic. These medallions alternate seamlessly with vertical floral panels, framed by abundant sprays of roses, peonies, and wildflowers in buttery yellows, soft pinks, and pale blues.
Set against a deep charcoal-black background, the warm, earthy palette—anchored in ochre, olive, rose, and ivory—gives the rug both drama and softness. The flowers pop vividly while remaining balanced by the lush forest-green foliage that intertwines throughout. The use of high-contrast colors on a flat-woven surface mimics the painterly aesthetic of Aubusson and tapestry-inspired carpets, enhanced here with modern clarity and crispness.
Woven entirely by hand using traditional techniques, this rug features a dense, tapestry-like texture with exceptional detail and precision. Subtle mirrored motifs throughout the field emphasize symmetry and structure, while maintaining the free-flowing romance typical of antique Bessarabian textiles.
This rug is signed "D.L.B." in the lower corner, signaling its origin from the Doris Leslie Blau collection and guaranteeing exceptional craftsmanship and authenticity. With a wide range of prices, Doris Leslie Blau makes exceptional rugs accessible to collectors and designers alike.
