$16,000

This striking vintage Art Deco rug, handwoven in Europe circa 1945, embodies the bold creativity and geometric sophistication of the Deco period. Radiating with energy, the rug showcases a vivid color palette dominated by citrus green, burnt orange, deep red, ochre, and accents of lavender, delivering a striking visual rhythm and warmth.

The field features a mesmerizing grid pattern composed of crisscrossing diagonal lines, creating diamond formations centered with stylized floral medallions in orange and outlined in shades of rust and soft brown. Smaller concentric rosettes, with centers of aubergine and cream, punctuate the field in perfect symmetry. These motifs are rendered with a sense of stylization that is distinctly Deco — both playful and precise.

Surrounding this central composition is a richly ornamented border of densely packed stylized floral forms, blooming in vibrant shades of tangerine, crimson, chartreuse, and violet. At each corner, a circular medallion bursts with layered floral clusters, lending an additional layer of movement and visual complexity. The multiple bands of linear border framing these blooms anchor the exuberant design within a strong architectural structure — a hallmark of European Deco aesthetics.

Crafted from high-quality wool, this rug retains a luxurious pile, which enhances the depth and saturation of its bold colors. The handwoven nature of the piece contributes to its tactile charm and artisanal authenticity.

With its impeccable balance of decorative flair and structured elegance, this vintage European Art Deco rug is not merely a floor covering — it is a statement piece, equally suited to eclectic interiors and design-forward modern spaces.
