“Frise” Designed By Carlos David Studio Modern Art Deco Geometric Light Gray Hand-Knotted Oversized Wool & Silk Rug N11985 14'0" × 24'0" $43,000

A restrained Art Deco frame gives Frise its quiet authority, enclosing a soft light gray field with four parallel black lines that read like an architectural drawing translated into wool and silk. The oversized, open-center composition lets negative space do most of the work, creating a clean geometric rug with a calm, highly edited presence.

Hand-knotted with silk and metallic accents, the surface carries a subtle sheen that keeps the neutral palette from feeling flat. The border is crisp rather than ornate, and the slight tonal variations across the field add depth, giving this modern rug a softened, luminous finish suited to contemporary interiors. Its scale makes the border feel even more decisive.

The name Frise is especially apt: it references the decorative frieze, echoing the layered linear frame and its refined architectural rhythm. In a gallery-like living room, a formal dining setting, or a pared-back office, this Art Deco rug supplies definition without visual noise.

Curated by Doris Leslie Blau, this contemporary rug showcases the fusion of heritage techniques and modern aesthetics that defines the gallery's celebrated design philosophy. With a broad spectrum of styles and price points, DLB makes fine carpet art attainable for both seasoned collectors and first-time buyers.

A bespoke interpretation of this design is available upon request.
