French Deco Art Nouveau Rug

Offered by: Doris Leslie Blau Rugs

Description
A French Art Deco area rug designed by René Crevel. Born in Rouen, France, Crevel was a painter, designer and decorative artist. He worked for a number of manufacturers including the Manufacture Franҫaise de Tapis et de Couvertures, à la Place Clichy, and Coupé a Bourganeuf (Creuse). In 1920 he exhibited at the des Artistes-Décorateurs and at the Salon des Artistes-Décorateurs, where he was a member.

The French Art Deco rug design evolved from traditional floral and highly ornamental to a style of angular elegance with geometric, abstract and modern figurative motifs. The design is frequently spare, geometric, and architectural. The rugs created during this period remain elegant and refined to this day.
