Doris Leslie Blau Collection European Inspired Gold, Brown Handmade Wool Rug N11555 8'1" × 9'8" $8,000

This incredibly classy traditional today rug is inspired with the marvelous Eastern-European creations. It takes the traditional simple folk motifs and gives them a completely new dimension, saturated with timeless elegance and absolutely palatial chic. The area rug’s deep chocolate brown background is very typical of, for instance, Romanian decorative art in which a colorful pattern usually stands off a dark, sometimes even black, field.

Here, bold and pronounced floral motifs are rendered in a glamorous golden shade that forms an incredibly harmonious, graceful combination with the darker setting. The piece is not only a sheer pleasure to look at but also to touch. Its soft and sheen pile was masterfully hand-crafted of the finest wool and silk in accordance with centuries-old weaving techniques by a skilled artisan.

Such thorough and thoughtful making ensures the rug’s uniqueness and quality. This European-inspired wonder is ready to serve its owners for many decades without showing any signs of wear or damage. It will be a perfect addition to both classic and contemporary interiors. Due to the incredible mix of tradition and style, the modern area rug may complement a wide variety of decors, from Bohemian to Hollywood Regency.

Doris Leslie Blau carries an exceptional collection of original modern rugs in many styles and materials. Contemporary hand-made rugs are a bridge throughout history, they are the fruit of the constant evolution of the weaving craft that has accompanied men since the dawn of civilization.
