Doris Leslie Blau Collection Modern Abstract Beige, Black Hand Knotted Wool Rug N12208 13'10" × 19'2" $36,000

In this modern Afghan rug, the abstract rings out a tone that is almost infused with semantics. Almost, but not quite, because anyone seeking meaning in the letter-like black and white alternations will find only a semblance of one. The texture of the pile can easily be felt under one’s fingers, and it endows the cut-out-like shapes, of which none are identical, with an inimitable character. The choice of colors is dynamic and modern, and will be an excellent addition to any contemporary interior. Despite its modernity, this new abstract rug was made according to traditional techniques using wool of the highest quality.

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.
