Vintage Irish Arts & Crafts Abstract Slate Gray Hand-Knotted Wool Carpet BB6680 13'4" × 21'5" $105,000

This vintage Irish Arts and Crafts carpet, hand-knotted in wool circa 1900, comes from the Donegal weaving tradition and brings a restrained botanical language to the floor.

Across the slate gray field, an understated trellis of olive and forest green foliage forms a softly repeating lattice. The motif is intentionally softened by age, giving the composition a painterly, almost watercolor quality rather than a crisp geometric one.

A broad border frames the center with trailing ivy leaves and vine scrolls in teal, brick red, ochre, and blue, edged by a narrow orange line that sharpens the outline. The result is balanced and quietly decorative, well suited to rooms that call for historical character, layered texture, and a grounded Arts and Crafts presence.

This remarkable vintage rug comes from the curated collection at Doris Leslie Blau, renowned for its discerning eye for quality, artistry, and timeless design. Doris Leslie Blau presents an exceptional range of vintage, antique, and contemporary rugs suited to both classic and modern interiors.
