Contemporary Damask Floral Light Gray With Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Oversized Rug “Tondo” N12756 14'0" × 20'0" $48,000

Softly layered damask and medallion forms give Tondo its quiet, architectural presence. In a light gray field, the pattern unfolds in tonal ivory and beige accents, creating an allover composition that feels both traditional and distinctly modern. The repeated circular motifs, echoed in the rug’s name, lend the design a measured rhythm without the interruption of a border.

Hand-knotted from wool, the surface has a refined, low-profile hand with subtle variations that let the floral scrolls and crest-like details emerge and recede across the field. The oversized format enhances the sense of calm scale, making the rug especially effective in open-plan living rooms, dining spaces, or interiors that call for pattern with restraint.

Its Art Deco and modern influences are expressed through softened geometry, muted contrast, and a gently weathered finish that keeps the composition from feeling formal. The result is a contemporary wool rug with the elegance of a traditional damask and the versatility to anchor layered, design-led rooms.

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.
