Modern Damask Light Gray Hand-Knotted Wool & Silk Runner “Arabesque” N12515 3'0" × 19'1" $14,000

A cloud-soft light gray runner, Arabesque layers a delicate damask pattern over a strié ground for a quietly tailored, contemporary read. Hand-knotted in wool and silk, it balances everyday durability with a refined, luminous surface.

Interlacing floral and vine motifs appear in muted gold with a cool aqua cast, creating a full-field repeat without border or medallion. The low-contrast drawing keeps the composition airy, while the silk lends a subtle sheen against the denser wool pile. The result is textured, rhythmic, and visually light.

The name Arabesque reflects the elegant branching motif and the serene palette that defines its character. As a runner, it is well suited to hallways, galleries, and other transitional spaces where a modern rug needs softness, movement, and an architectural finish. Its wool-and-silk construction gives the design polish without excess, allowing it to work gracefully in both classic and contemporary interiors.

Exclusively curated by Doris Leslie Blau, this rug exemplifies the balance of innovation, artistry, and enduring quality that defines the gallery's approach to contemporary carpet design. The expansive Doris Leslie Blau collection includes pieces ranging from understated modern works to one-of-a-kind statement rugs.

This design is available as a bespoke rug in custom sizes and colors.
