About the Item
19th century Russian Bessarabian beige botanic handmade wool rug
Size: 11'4" × 16'0" (345 × 487 cm)
This exquisite 1880s Russian Bessarabian flat-woven rug is a testament to the region’s masterful textile artistry, blending naturalistic floral motifs with rich, contrasting colors for dramatic visual impact. Woven in the traditional kilim technique, the rug features an opulent arrangement of oversized roses and peonies in shades of blush, cream, and burgundy, all set against a deep chocolate brown background. The floral elements are intricately detailed with nuanced shading, lending the piece a painterly quality that evokes 19th-century European still-life paintings. Delicate borderwork frames the central field with stylized rosettes and meandering vines, providing structure while enhancing the lush central theme. This Bessarabian rug is both a decorative and historical treasure, capturing the romantic elegance and fine craftsmanship characteristic of Eastern European textile heritage.
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.
