Abstract Modern Handmade Runner With Charcoal Line Motifs In Off White Silk & Wool Blend “whisper Lines” N13021 5'2" × 16'8" $18,000

Elegantly spare yet full of motion, Ecriture turns charcoal linework into a lyrical abstract composition across an off-white field. The scattered, calligraphic motifs feel drawn by hand, giving this contemporary rug a measured rhythm that is graphic, fluid, and distinctly modern, with plenty of visual breathing room between each sweeping gesture.

Hand-knotted in silk and wool, the surface balances a soft sheen with a matte foundation, allowing the darker strokes to stand out cleanly against the ivory ground. The strié texture and generous negative space keep the design airy, while the non-mirrored arrangement lends a quietly architectural presence that softens a room without adding weight.

Named Ecriture for the elegant, handwritten quality of its charcoal lines, this abstract piece brings movement and refinement to long corridors, living areas, and other streamlined interiors. Its restrained palette and art-deco-leaning linearity make it especially effective in modern settings where texture and drawing matter as much as color.

Sourced from the Doris Leslie Blau collection, this rug embodies sophisticated craftsmanship and modern elegance. Established in 1965, Doris Leslie Blau has become internationally recognized for offering exceptional rugs spanning contemporary creations, celebrated vintage designs, and rare antique masterpieces.
