Mid-Century Indian Dhurrie Abstract Light Blue With Navy Blue Flatweave Cotton Rug BB7939 10'0" × 10'9" $20,000

This vintage Indian dhurrie is a mid-century cotton flatweave, handwoven in the tradition of North Indian floor textiles prized for their crisp geometry and adaptable structure. Its square format and restrained composition give it a distinctly modern presence, while the woven surface keeps the piece rooted in time-honored craftsmanship.

The field is washed in light blue, moving through pale cerulean and deeper sky tones in broad horizontal banding that lends the surface a painterly, atmospheric quality. Rather than a figurative motif, the design relies on quiet variation in tone and weave, allowing the rug to read as an abstract plane of color with depth and subtle movement.

A narrow navy-blue border frames the composition and sharpens the soft center with measured contrast. This balance of open field and dark perimeter makes the dhurrie especially effective in modern, coastal, or mid-century interiors, where it can ground furnishings without visual clutter while adding texture, light, and a composed sense of order.

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.
