About the Item

Vintage French Art Deco Rug Size: 8'2" × 12'8" (248 × 386 cm) Bold in concept yet serene in execution, this exquisite French Art Deco rug from the 1930s exemplifies the movement’s signature harmony between abstraction and organic form. Rendered in a soft, elegant palette of sage green and ivory, the composition features three graceful birds in flight—stylized swans or cranes—set against a swirling cloud-like motif, evocative of East Asian art influences that were popular during the Deco era. The outer field is framed with striking diagonal stripes that inject a sense of rhythm and modernity into the design, creating a dynamic contrast with the fluid, curvilinear center. The overall effect is both balanced and visually engaging, demonstrating the Art Deco penchant for marrying geometry with nature-inspired forms. Hand-knotted in wool, the rug has a rich, plush texture that enhances the visual depth of the pattern. Its subtle variations in pile and tone, adding character and a sense of history to the piece. The initials "SS" are subtly woven into one corner of the rug, potentially referencing the artist or atelier. Though it shows gentle wear consistent with age—including some mild discolorations and pile irregularities—these features only add to its authenticity and vintage charm. Ideal for a sophisticated interior that celebrates timeless design, this Art Deco rug is not just a floor covering but a collectible work of textile art. 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.
