About the Item
Rare 1930s French Aubusson Round Rug Attributed to André Arbus
Size: 8'9" × 8'9" (266 × 266 cm)
Color: Beige, Lavender, Yellow
This exceptional round Aubusson rug, dating to the 1930s, is a remarkable example of French Art Deco design, attributed to the celebrated architect and designer André Arbus. Measuring approximately 9 feet in diameter, the rug boasts a bold and elegant neoclassical-inspired medallion motif rendered in a restrained yet impactful palette of ivory, soft taupe, and warm golden beige.
The central design features a stylized starburst medallion enclosed within a hexagonal frame, echoing classical architectural ceiling motifs reimagined with Art Deco refinement. Framing elements such as fluted cartouches and circular accents lend the piece a sense of balanced grandeur, harmonizing symmetry with a modern sensibility.
Handwoven in wool with flat-woven tapestry technique typical of Aubusson workshops, the rug displays the precise workmanship and design rigor associated with Arbus’ atelier. The stylized composition and subtle tonality are both decorative and architectural in nature, making it an ideal statement piece for sophisticated interiors.
In very good condition with slight wear consistent with age, this rare round rug exemplifies the fusion of tradition and innovation characteristic of interwar French decorative arts. Perfect for a grand salon, dining area, or as a dramatic centerpiece in a modern classic setting.
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.
