Indian Dhurrie Vintage Light Blue Flatweave Cotton Carpet BB9134 11'6" × 19'0" $26,000

This vintage Indian dhurrie is a handwoven flatweave cotton carpet made in the long-standing dhurrie tradition of India. Its pared-back composition favors surface, texture, and proportion over ornament, giving the rug an architectural clarity that feels both tailored and relaxed.

A broad light blue field forms the visual core, softly clouded by fine strié that lends movement to the otherwise solid ground. The weave reads with a gentle, heathered variation, so the color shifts subtly as light moves across the surface. Rather than a defined motif, the design relies on quiet tonal nuance, creating an open expanse that can anchor a room without visual weight.

Framing the center is a pale pink-beige border that introduces warmth without disturbing the rug’s restraint. The cool-and-warm contrast is delicate rather than dramatic, making this vintage dhurrie especially effective in contemporary, coastal, or transitional interiors where a light, unobtrusive Indian rug is needed. Its simplicity is precisely what gives it distinction.

Curated by Doris Leslie Blau, this vintage rug carries the distinct character and artisanal soul that the gallery has championed for decades. With an unrivaled selection spanning eras, origins, and price points, Doris Leslie Blau continues to make fine carpet art accessible to designers and collectors worldwide.
