About the Item
Vintage French Art Deco Rug
Size: 4'10" × 6'6" (147 × 198 cm)
This rare and elegant French Art Deco rug from the 1950s is a compelling example of mid-century design that masterfully blends minimalism with abstract geometric patterning. Woven in France, the rug displays a warm, neutral ivory-beige field accented with striking brown and black angular motifs, arranged in stylized, almost architectural clusters.
The ornamentation is asymmetrically placed—one of the defining features of post-war French modernism—creating a dynamic visual rhythm that balances empty space with pattern. Motifs on the rug include grid-like diamonds, arrowhead shapes, and abstract bird-like forms, lending a subtle tribal or Cubist influence, reminiscent of works by Jean Lurçat or other French modernists of the era.
A minimal border composed of scattered linear and dot-like elements runs along two of the rug’s edges, forming a delicate frame without overwhelming the composition. These design choices reflect the post-war inclination toward simplification and stylization while still echoing the exuberance of early Art Deco.
Handwoven from high-quality wool, the rug has a plush texture and a matte surface that speaks to the artisanal craftsmanship typical of mid-century French ateliers. The natural wool background provides a warm, versatile base, while the brown and black patterning offers contrast and sophistication, making it ideal for interiors that value understated artistic statements.
Rich in heritage and artistry, this handmade rug exemplifies the high standards of Doris Leslie Blau’s curated pieces. With a wide range of prices, Doris Leslie Blau makes exceptional rugs accessible to collectors and designers alike.
