Doris Leslie Blau Collection Beaux Art Deco Natural Yarn Rug after Andre Arbus N12012 14'1" × 24'9" $52,000

All art aficionados will admit that it’s generally hard to match the elegance and glam of Beaux Arts and Arts Deco. This exceptional rug, inspired by the great works of Andre Arbus, combines the best of both styles. It is a floor covering truly worthy of Great Gatsby’s opulent estate.

This contemporary Deco rug carries a cartouche-like design with a plain field embraced by an ornamental frame and borders. Curvilinear elements add charm and grace to the architectural character of the composition, and compensate for the patternless main field. The color palette relies on neutrals – off-white, beige, gray and taupe – but it also contains stronger touches of plum and gold. Altogether, this magnificent modern rug speaks timelessness and class, and it will be an excellent addition to any kind of interior.

Next to beautiful design, the modern rug can also boast about its refined workmanship. The piece was carefully hand-knotted of natural yarn in accordance with traditional techniques to ensure its durability and quality. Under proper maintenance, this Beaux Arts Deco rug will serve many years without the slightest signs of wear.

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.
