Vintage Indian Dhurrie Striped White And Blue Flatweave Cotton Rug BB8650 7'0" × 8'0" $8,000

This striking vintage Indian Dhurrie rug, dating from the mid-20th century, features a boldly modern yet timeless design composed of alternating indigo blue and ivory stripes. Woven by hand from cotton, the flatweave structure of the dhurrie lends itself to sharp, clean geometry and a crisp texture.

What sets this rug apart is the playful and irregular approach to its stripe motif. While primarily composed of horizontal bands, the design is interrupted by quirky, elongated white arrow motifs and variably scaled stripes, lending a sense of artistic spontaneity. A few vertical segments further break the visual symmetry, adding a subtle abstract character reminiscent of modernist art or tribal symbolism.

The deep indigo dye gives a rich, natural contrast to the off-white base, and the visible texture and slight variegation in the yarn provide added depth. These features speak not only to the artisanal quality of the weaving but also to the organic charm of vintage Indian flatweaves.

Showcasing the finest materials and patterns, this design is part of the expansive Doris Leslie Blau Collection, renowned for its rare and unique finds across a wide range of prices.
