Au Courant Beige and Gold Hand-knotted Wool and Silk Rug N11769 12'2" × 15'6" $30,000

This stunning contemporary rug has something that many other floor coverings seem to lack – elegance. Knotted by hand using the highest quality blend of wool and silk, the modern area rug is not only nice to touch, but also very durable, which makes it a great investment for the future. The pattern depicted on the pile certainly draws the eye with its whimsical shapes that look like some ancient writings on the stone. The color palette accompanying this composition consists of beiges with some gold undertones which help to make it look even more refined than it already is.

Contemporary rug designs can be inspired by vintage rugs, antique carpets, or by relevant works of art, yet are usually executed with a more modern twist, either in the pattern or the color palette. Many of our modern rugs and contemporary rugs were shaped by top designers and architects exclusive to the Doris Leslie Blau Gallery.
