French Art Deco Vintage Abstract Warm Tan And Brick Red Hand-Knotted Wool Rug BB7070 4'7" × 7'0" $14,000

This vintage French Art Deco hand-knotted wool rug translates postwar modernism into a warm, tactile textile, with a tan ground animated by brick red and black abstract detailing. Rooted in the French decorative tradition, it feels both streamlined and expressive, offering the clarity of Art Deco design without the rigidity of a formal medallion layout.

The composition is organized around tall, vertical bands that run through the open field like elongated brushstrokes. Broken geometric marks, dotted striations, and softened linear edges create a painterly rhythm, while the darker accents introduce a sharper graphic note. At the ends, small architectural fragments hint at a border structure that remains intentionally loose.

The overall effect is tailored yet relaxed, with the low, dense wool pile lending the colors a matte, understated finish. Its directional pattern visually lengthens a room and works especially well beneath clean-lined furniture, where its abstract geometry can anchor a contemporary interior while still carrying the character of a vintage French rug.

Sourced from the expansive Doris Leslie Blau collection, this vintage rug exemplifies the gallery's passion for preserving remarkable carpets of enduring beauty. DLB offers a diverse selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs, accommodating collectors and designers across every style and budget.
