French Deco Rug

Offered by: Doris Leslie Blau Rugs

Description
A French Art Deco vintage wool carpet woven in different tones of brown over a beige background. This Art Deco rug embodies the aesthetic of the period, juxtaposing pattern of diamonds and triangles embraced with a a symmetrical abstract outer border, probably taken from contemporaneous Moroccan rugs which were at their height of fashion in that period. Art Deco is a style of visual arts, architecture and design that first appeared in France just before World War I. The Art Deco movement led to a fast evolution of the rug and textile design, among other art forms. 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.
