This superb piece, designed by Arthur Dunnam himself, immediately delights the viewer with its subtle elegance, so characteristic for the style of its creator. Made by hand from the highest quality wool, the aubusson area rug 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, Dunnam decided to simplify the traditional pattern, creating a truly modern composition. 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 beige and brown work perfectly together, bringing balance and harmony to the whole. The carpet’s size is its great advantage, as it will fit any kind of room perfectly. After all, Dunnam’s designs are not only beautiful, but also practical!

At Doris Leslie Blau you can find not only a collection of Antique Aubusson designer area rugs, but also a line of Aubusson-inspired carpets, among which we can distinguish some of Eric Cohler’s aubusson-style floor coverings. Traditional Aubusson modern wool rugs originated in a town in south-central France – Aubusson. Initially, the region was known mostly for its tapestry, but from the mid-16th until the 19th century, the carpet weaving had been flourishing there. One of the characteristics of the early Aubusson rugs is a strong and vivid palette of colors.

Doris Leslie Blau carries an exceptional collection of original modern rugs in many styles and materials. Contemporary hand-made rugs are a bridge throughout history, they are the fruit of the constant evolution of the weaving craft that has accompanied men since the dawn of civilization.
