About the Item
Vibrant 1930s French Art Deco Rug – A Tapestry of Botanical Dynamism
Size: 7'7" × 11'0" (231 × 335 cm).
A rare and exuberant example of French Art Deco textile art, this vintage rug from the 1930s captures the era’s love of bold composition, exoticism, and stylized nature. Woven in France, this masterwork radiates with energy and vibrancy, transforming the decorative rug into a visual symphony of botanical abundance.
The design explodes with cascading foliage, dynamic florals, and fantastical vegetation. From stylized chrysanthemums and lotus-like blooms to dramatic fronds and curling vine motifs, the rug is a celebration of natural forms seen through the modernist lens of Art Deco. The asymmetrical layout avoids traditional borders, favoring a more immersive, mural-like experience—every section pulsates with layered color and movement.
The palette is equally captivating: saturated lipstick reds, burnt oranges, citrus greens, deep violets, and ochres swirl against warm beiges and charcoal accents. The painterly brushstroke effect—characteristic of French Art Deco—is achieved through expert use of tonality and form, giving the rug an almost dreamlike, jungle-like vibrancy.
Hand-knotted in wool, the rug boasts a lush texture and meticulous craftsmanship. Despite its age, the piece feels strikingly modern, making it an ideal focal point for both classic and contemporary interiors.
Whether used as a floor covering or a decorative wall hanging, this exceptional Art Deco rug is a true testament to the aesthetic daring and sophistication of 1930s French design.
With its unique pattern and refined colors, this vintage rug reflects the impeccable taste of Doris Leslie Blau’s selections. Offering both rare, high-end pieces and more accessible options, Doris Leslie Blau presents rugs in a wide spectrum of prices.
