About the Item
Vintage French Art Deco Rug
Size: 6'8" x 10'0" (203 × 304 cm)
This stunning 1920s French Art Deco rug masterfully blends modernist geometry with soft romanticism, creating a rare textile expression of early 20th-century design refinement. Handwoven in France, this piece perfectly encapsulates the spirit of Art Deco—where symmetry, innovation, and beauty converge in harmony.
At the heart of the design lies an oversized pale lilac oval medallion, floating like a moonlit reflection in a field of soft pastels. This central motif is framed by a grand, architecturally inspired border of stylized roses in tones of burnished gold, muted peach, celadon, and soft lavender, all arranged in a sweeping elliptical band that gracefully anchors the composition.
The surrounding field features a geometric lattice of diamond medallions, each enclosing a stylized spiral rose in vibrant amber, cinnamon, and rust, subtly accented by tiny blooms in pink and saffron. These repeating floral tiles are punctuated by intersecting borders of checkerboard stripes in amethyst and ochre, adding rhythm and definition to the otherwise dreamy palette.
The border’s embrace of both curved and rectilinear forms exemplifies the Art Deco movement’s genius for merging classical balance with modern abstraction. Despite the intricate pattern, the rug maintains a soft, almost ethereal quality, largely thanks to the plush wool pile and the gentle gradient of the lilac field.
From the finely knotted weave to the restrained yet evocative color palette, this rug is a standout example of French Deco artistry. It is ideally suited for interiors that crave character and elegance—be it a chic Parisian-inspired salon, a vintage-inflected modernist living space, or a refined Art Deco 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.
