Doris Leslie Blau Collection Aubusson by Arthur Dunnam N11014 9'10" × 13'8" $8,000

Contemporary rugs are famous for the astonishing diversity of their designs and styles. You are bound to find a modern rug of your dreams, provided that you look. Art Deco are especially sought after due to their rule-breaking designs and vivacious color palettes. It is no wonder that each season we can find more and more Art Deco rugs in showrooms of famous designers or in interior design magazines.

This exquisite Art Deco rug, designed by Arthur Dunnam, immediately delights with its subtle elegance,  so characteristic for the style of its creator.  Handmade from the highest quality wool, the carpet sports an interesting pattern, inspired by the magnificent pieces, woven in the past by villages of Aubusson and Felletin, in France. However, instead of keeping the rich ornamentations and vivacious colorings, Arthur Dunnam decided to simplify the traditional pattern. Geometrical shapes and straight lines incorporated into this design are as picturesque as the traditional needlework,  while keeping their minimalistic charm. Discreet dyes in the shades of gray and brown do not distract from the pattern, but enhance it instead.
