French Art Deco Rug in Black and Crimson BB6242 6'4" × 8'7" $9,000

$9,000

A hand-knotted wool rug from France, 1930’s. This is a rare and authentic French Art Deco piece distinguished by a sparse, bold, modernistic pattern composed of monochromatic blocks in black and crimson, with beige and blue accents. The asymmetric composition is typical for the period as often these carpets were designed by the interior decorator for specific areas, to be used often in conjunction with strategically placed furniture. Today, these types of rugs are appreciated for their refined minimalist statement.

Art Deco is a style of visual arts, architecture and design that first appeared in France just before World War I. The Art Deco movement led to a fast evolution of the rug and textile design, among other art forms. Rug design evolved from traditional floral and highly ornamental to a style of angular elegance with geometric, abstract and modern figurative motifs. The design is frequently spare, geometric, and architectural. The rugs created during this period remain elegant and refined to this day
