Modern Hand-Knotted Solid Ivory Handmade Wool & Silk Rug “Aurum” N10600 12'3" × 17'2" $23,156

This modern white and gold rug from the Doris Leslie Blau Collection is a refined study in texture, subtle pattern, and understated elegance. Handcrafted in India from high-quality wool, it exemplifies the contemporary approach to rug design—where simplicity and materiality take precedence over ornate decoration .

The field is composed of a soft ivory-white ground, enlivened by a delicate network of fine linear striations in warm golden-beige tones. These slender, irregular lines create a quiet sense of movement across the surface, adding depth and visual interest while maintaining a calm, minimal aesthetic. The effect is reminiscent of natural fibers or organic textures, giving the rug a relaxed yet sophisticated character.

Framing the composition is a subtle contrasting border in a deeper golden-brown hue, which anchors the design and provides gentle definition without interrupting its airy, open feel. This restrained border enhances the rug’s architectural presence while preserving its modern simplicity.

The palette—ivory, cream, and muted gold—is timeless and versatile, making the rug an ideal foundation for a wide range of interiors, from contemporary and minimalist spaces to more classic or transitional settings. Its neutral tones allow it to blend seamlessly while still offering a layer of warmth and tactile richness.

Generously sized at approximately 12’3″ × 17’2″, the rug is well-suited for large living areas, where its expansive surface can act as both a unifying element and a subtle focal point .

Elegant in its restraint and rich in texture, this modern wool rug reflects the evolution of traditional craftsmanship into a clean, contemporary language of design—perfect for interiors that value simplicity, quality, and quiet sophistication.

A prime example of the exclusive and varied Doris Leslie Blau designs, this rug brings luxury and character to any space. Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
