Description
A rare and elegant piece from Doris Leslie Blau. The antique Arts and Crafts rug, dates back to around 1920 and originates from Ireland (Donegal). The central field is an expansive, serene green, lending the piece a sense of tranquility and spaciousness. This unadorned expanse allows the intricate border to take center stage, emphasizing the delicate craftsmanship and harmonious balance of the composition. Encasing the lush green field, the border unfolds in a sophisticated interplay of soft beige, warm pink, red and earthy terracotta tones. Stylized floral motifs and scrolling vine patterns gracefully weave through the frame, creating a rhythmic and organic flow that enhances the rug’s timeless elegance. Hand-knotted with meticulous attention to detail, this Donegal rug reflects the influence of the Arts & Crafts movement, celebrated for its dedication to craftsmanship and nature-inspired motifs. Its soft yet durable wool pile ensures longevity, while the balanced palette and refined ornamentation make it a versatile addition to both classic and contemporary interiors.
