Vintage French Art Deco Geometric Warm Tan With Brown Hand-Knotted Wool Rug BB8886 9'1" × 11'10" $32,000

This vintage French rug, woven in the Art Deco tradition circa the mid-20th century, brings a tailored geometric language to the floor. Hand-knotted in wool, it reflects the era’s preference for clarity, rhythm, and restrained ornament, translated here through a softly aged palette of warm tan, beige, and brown.

The field is organized as an allover grid of staggered rectangular blocks, with slender vertical stripes and small stepped motifs creating subtle movement across the surface. Rather than a central medallion, the design relies on repetition and offset placement, giving the rug an architectural cadence that feels precise yet relaxed. Variations in tone lend the composition a muted, lived-in depth.

A narrow dark border frames the composition with quiet definition, keeping the pattern visually contained and easy to place in contemporary interiors. The result is a geometric vintage rug that offers structure without heaviness, pairing naturally with clean-lined furniture, warm wood, and rooms seeking a refined Art Deco accent.

Curated by Doris Leslie Blau, this vintage rug carries the distinct character and artisanal soul that the gallery has championed for decades. With an unrivaled selection spanning eras, origins, and price points, Doris Leslie Blau continues to make fine carpet art accessible to designers and collectors worldwide.
