Hand-knotted in wool and lustrous silk, its design features interlocking arcs, rectangles, and circles in sophisticated shades of slate blue, mauve, rose, and taupe—a work of art inspired by some of the most iconic 1920s period pieces of the titular movement.

On the Design:

This captivating rug is a vibrant work of art of geometric abstraction, a commanding statement piece for any modern interior. Hand-knotted in India, its design draws clear inspiration from the bold lines and sophisticated color blocking of Art Deco and Cubist movements. The field is a meticulously composed tableau of interlocking geometric forms: sweeping arcs, precise rectangles, and defined circles converge and overlap, creating a sense of dynamic movement and architectural balance. The interplay of shapes and hues results in a sophisticated collage effect, where each element contributes to the overall tension and harmony. Rendered in a rich, multi-tonal palette, the rug showcases unexpected yet harmonious fusions of color. Deep slate blues, muted mauve, soft rose, earthy browns, and warm taupes are meticulously placed, creating visual depth and intriguing contrasts.

Being crafted from a luxurious blend of hand-knotted wool and lustrous silk, the rug's texture is as captivating as its design; the wool provides grounding softness, while the silk areas shimmer, catching the light to emphasize the distinct geometric planes and complement the sense of depth and dimensionality these patterns evoke in a fabulous contemporary fashion. This rug is a testament to modern artistry, offering a truly unique and luxurious foundation. See less
