About the Item
Vintage Belgian Art Deco Rug by Paul Haesaerts for Elisabeth De Saedeleer
Size: 8'0" × 10'5" (243 × 317 cm)
A striking example of European modernist textile design, this vintage Belgian rug was conceived in the 1930s by the celebrated Belgian artist and architect Paul Haesaerts for Elisabeth de Saedeleer. Renowned for his multidisciplinary creativity, Haesaerts brought a bold, geometric sensibility to this Art Deco composition that remains timelessly compelling.
The rug showcases a highly rhythmic, almost optical interplay of interlocking zigzags and lozenge forms, rendered in a tightly curated palette of warm neutrals—ivory, beige, sand, and varying shades of brown. The symmetry of the stepped, angular forms and their subtle modulation in tone convey a visual dynamism that evokes both primitive abstraction and early modernist aesthetics.
Woven with the meticulous craftsmanship characteristic of Belgian Deco ateliers, the rug is both visually commanding and structurally robust. Its wool pile is thick yet crisply defined, offering a rich surface texture and excellent condition for its age. The palette, though soft, is sophisticated, making this piece well-suited for interiors seeking subtle pattern, heritage artistry, or Art Deco refinement.
Paul Haesaerts’ collaboration with Elisabeth de Saedeleer, daughter of Symbolist painter Valerius de Saedeleer, marks a unique intersection of avant-garde design and Belgian decorative traditions. This rare rug is not only a collectible piece of European textile art, but also a statement of early 20th-century design innovation.
This rug is part of the esteemed Doris Leslie Blau collection, 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.
