Mid-Century Indian Dhurrie Floral Lavender Flatweave Cotton Rug BB9139 11'0" × 13'6" $24,000

Woven in India during the vintage period, this handwoven cotton dhurrie belongs to the long tradition of utilitarian carpets made with clarity and restraint.

An open lavender-blue field stretches across the surface, organized by evenly spaced rows of small geometric rosettes that create a measured, architectural rhythm. The motifs are delicate rather than decorative in a heavy sense, giving the rug an airy, tailored presence. A narrow zigzag inner frame defines the composition without crowding it, while the broad outer border in dusty mauve-lilac adds a soft contrast and helps the central field read with greater openness.

The palette is quietly sophisticated: cool dusty blue, lavender, soft white, and subtle hints of peach and pale gold. Because of its flatweave construction, the rug has a low-profile finish that layers easily beneath furniture and works especially well in relaxed contemporary interiors, bedrooms, and living spaces seeking pattern with a light hand. Its balanced geometry offers an easy partner for wood, linen, and upholstered pieces.

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.
