Vintage French Art Deco Floral Warm Tan Hand-Knotted Wool Rug BB5427 11'6" × 14'6" $60,000

This vintage French Art Deco rug, circa 1930, is hand-knotted in wool and drawn from the early twentieth-century French tradition of decorative carpet design. Its composition favors balance and restraint over dense ornament, giving the piece the calm clarity often associated with refined Art Deco interiors.

An open warm tan field anchors the layout, while dark brown lines build a disciplined framework around the perimeter. Stepped corner blocks, compartmented squares, and zebra-like bands introduce a strong geometric cadence, yet the sweeping vine arabesques and small floral clusters soften the architecture with a botanical note. The design reads almost like an abstract garden mapped in panels and pathways.

Muted beige, taupe, rust red, and earthy brown create a grounded palette with enough contrast to define the pattern without overwhelming it. The result is a vintage French Art Deco wool rug with presence, texture, and versatility, well suited to rooms that benefit from structure, warmth, and a quietly graphic focal point throughout the room.

Sourced from the expansive Doris Leslie Blau collection, this vintage rug exemplifies the gallery's passion for preserving remarkable carpets of enduring beauty.
