French Art Deco Handmade Wool Rug BB3141 8'0" × 11'0" $20,000

This French Art Deco handmade wool rug from circa 1920 exemplifies the elegance and innovation of the Art Deco movement. Offered by Doris Leslie Blau, this exceptional piece features a striking vertically striped field in rich brick red and warm tan, adorned with oversized, abstract leaf motifs in ivory and yellow—a hallmark of early 20th-century modernist design.

Handwoven from high-quality wool, this vintage piece is not only a functional floor covering but also a statement of historical artistry, embodying the refined craftsmanship that Doris Leslie Blau is known for curating. Whether placed in a contemporary or classic setting, this Art Deco rug adds sophistication and artistic depth to any space.

The Art Deco era, emerging in France just before World War I, introduced a bold departure from traditional, ornate patterns, embracing geometric, abstract, and avant-garde motifs. This rug captures that spirit, blending timeless elegance with a dynamic, painterly aesthetic.
