About the Item
Vintage Dutch Deco Rug
Size: 7'10" × 11'7" (238 × 353 cm)
An exceptional example of mid-century textile artistry, this 1940s vintage Dutch Deco rug exudes a powerful modernist aesthetic while preserving artisanal charm. Meticulously hand-knotted in the Netherlands, this rare piece showcases the dynamic interplay between geometry, color, and texture—hallmarks of the European Art Deco movement.
The composition is visually arresting: a complex, symmetrical layout draws the eye inward to a highly architectural central medallion, surrounded by layered blocks and stepped motifs. The rug’s design integrates rectilinear and organic forms, with abstract florals and stylized scrolls set within a grid-like framework—an imaginative fusion of Cubism and early Bauhaus design principles.
The palette is richly sophisticated and warm, blending terra cotta, rust, sand, beige, charcoal, camel, and muted orange. These earthy hues are enhanced by intricate striations and speckled textures, which lend depth and visual interest to the composition. Throughout the design, fine detailing—such as crosshatch patterns, checkerboards, and offset lines—adds layers of intricacy.
Crafted in high-quality wool, the rug boasts a dense, luxurious pile that accentuates the handwoven character and ensures durability. The subtle fading and patina, along with minor signs of use, contribute to its authentic vintage appeal and timeless character.
This Dutch Deco rug stands out as both a functional floor covering and a statement piece of modern art. Ideal for collectors and design connoisseurs, it offers a bold yet harmonious aesthetic suitable for sophisticated interiors seeking a touch of European modernism.
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.
