French Art Deco Vintage Abstract Light Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug BB7846 8'6" × 10'2" $22,000

This French vintage Art Deco rug is hand-knotted in wool and reflects the streamlined decorative tradition of European design from the period.

Its broad light beige field creates an unusually open center, while the perimeter is animated by a warm coral frame, stepped geometric edging, and airy bands of dusty blue and soft tan. At the corners, rounded floral-cartouche forms bloom in pastel shades, combining scalloped outlines, scrolling accents, and small abstract blossoms. The effect is graphic yet gentle, with the motifs placed more as suspended ornaments than as a strict allover repeat.

Wavy lines, blocky architectural contours, and the occasional fan-like flourish give the composition a modern rhythm that feels distinctly Art Deco. The restrained palette keeps the design luminous and versatile, allowing the rug to soften a room without losing character. It works especially well in interiors that favor clean lines, layered texture, and a decorative detail with historical poise.

Sourced from the expansive Doris Leslie Blau collection, this vintage rug exemplifies the gallery's passion for preserving remarkable carpets of enduring beauty. DLB offers a diverse selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs, accommodating collectors and designers across every style and budget.
