Doris Leslie Blau Collection One-of-a-Kind Bessarabian Floral Design Brown Rug N11903 11'9" × 18'3" $18,000

This fabulous new rug draws richly from various weaving traditions including Bessarabian and French. The nature-related motifs characteristic of the Eastern-European craft are executed in utterly sophisticated, meticulous and detailed way typical of Savonnerie or Aubusson weavings.  The classic design full of delicate florals will introduce the air of timeless elegance into any kind of décor.

The main field of the Bessarabian-inspired rug carries graceful blossoms and foliage that form a romantic meadow. It is embraced by a much more ornamental border with columns, blooming garland and cupids that adds depth and stately character to the soothing, almost whimsical central pattern. The color palette of pear white, beige, mauve, plum and taupe is pleasant to the eye and versatile enough to easily fit into most interior arrangements.

Next to the appealing appearance, this contemporary rug can also boast of impeccable workmanship. Its flat body was carefully hand-woven of the finest wool in order to ensure durability and resilience. Under proper maintenance, this one of a kind piece will serve its owners for generations without any 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.
