Vintage Indian Dhurrie Rug BB7980 6'5" × 7'2" $8,000
$8,000
A striking testament to the timeless appeal of minimalism and artisanal craftsmanship, this vintage Indian Dhurrie rug (circa mid-20th century) is a study in balanced design and subdued elegance. Handwoven in cotton, the rug features a rhythmic pattern of vertical stripes in pale indigo and cream, softened by the subtle irregularities of natural dye and handweaving—an intentional homage to imperfection and authenticity.
The vertical striping is uniquely interpreted with gently feathered and blurred edges, creating a painterly, almost watercolor effect that distinguishes this Dhurrie from more rigidly geometric examples. The stripes are punctuated by subtle tonal variations, lending depth and a dynamic, textural quality to the surface.
The piece’s square format makes it especially versatile—ideal for anchoring a seating area or adding calm structure to a room with modern or coastal aesthetics. Lightweight and reversible, this Dhurrie is not only beautiful but functional, showcasing the enduring utility and stylistic adaptability of traditional Indian flatweave rugs.
With its cool palette, understated pattern, and artisanal appeal, this rug is a refined choice for collectors and designers seeking a vintage textile that complements both contemporary and classic interiors.
Rich in heritage and artistry, this handmade rug exemplifies the high standards of Doris Leslie Blau’s curated pieces. With a wide range of prices, Doris Leslie Blau makes exceptional rugs accessible to collectors and designers alike.
