The design features a brilliant crimson red field framed by deep navy blue bands forming a stepped rectangular motif near the edges and interior, creating a framed, architectural look characteristic of the Art Deco aesthetic. Hand-knotted in wool, the rug showcases subtle tonal shifts in the red field-resulting from artisanal dyeing techniques-which add texture, depth, and movement to the otherwise solid design. The thick wool pile provides both visual richness and a luxurious tactile experience. Woven in France, this runner is a quintessential example of Deco-era textile artistry, where simplicity of form meets bold color. Its dramatic palette and clean lines make it a compelling choice for hallways, staircases, galleries, or any space in need of a sophisticated yet impactful design element. With its unique pattern and refined colors, this vintage rug reflects the impeccable taste of Doris Leslie Blau's selections. Offering both rare, high-end pieces and more accessible options, Doris Leslie Blau presents rugs in a wide spectrum of prices. See less
