Modern Floral Dusty Blue Hand-Knotted Rug “Burgeon” Designed By Paolo Moschino N12950 7'10" × 9'9" $18,000

Paolo Moschino’s Burgeon interprets florals with an unusually light hand, tracing a loose garland of budding branches across a warm terracotta-tan ground. Rather than building a formal border or central medallion, the composition floats in open space, giving this contemporary floral rug a painterly, almost atmospheric presence.

The hand-knotted wool and silk pile enhances that effect: wool provides a grounded, matte field while silk brings a soft gleam to the faint taupe and golden-beige tracery. The result is low-contrast and quietly layered, with just enough surface variation to reward a closer look without overwhelming the room.

Named Burgeon for the subtle branch motifs that suggest spring’s first growth, the design feels poised between abstraction and botanical reference. It is an elegant choice for modern interiors that call for a decorative rug with warmth, restraint, and an easy sense of movement.

Part of the curated collection at Doris Leslie Blau, this rug reflects the gallery's dedication to pairing traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design vision.
