Vintage French Art Deco Geometric Warm Tan Hand-Knotted Wool Rug BB8969 6'8" × 10'0" $15,000

This vintage French Art Deco rug, circa 1930, reflects the streamlined design language of early 20th-century French weaving in a hand-knotted wool format. It pairs architectural order with a restrained, highly usable palette, making it a refined example of antique French design.

A warm tan field forms the foundation for a rectilinear central medallion, outlined in crisp brown and animated by small cross-like accents at the corners. Layered bands of blue unfold around it in light sky, medium, and navy tones, creating a stepped geometric frame that feels both balanced and dynamic. The composition is grounded by a deep black outer border, which sharpens the silhouette and gives the rug a strong visual edge.

As a geometric Art Deco rug with a subtle French Provincial sensibility, it brings structure without heaviness. The open center and mirror-like symmetry make it especially effective in rooms that need a clear focal point, while the wool surface lends warmth and tactility to the precise design.
