One-of-a-Kind 10'2" X 10'4" 1920s Area Rug in Rosy Brown

Features

• Origin: Irish Rugs.
• Style: Donegal Rugs.
• This demonstrates a Persian influence in the overall layout, but it has a distinctive art character that places it in the Arts and Crafts or Art Deco movement. The shapes are reduced to their simplest form, with only subtle shading to give them depth. The visual impact of the carpet comes from the gorgeous blue background and the contrasting flowers in warm colours. The treatment of the flowers and leaves gives them an almost abstract, or modern feel.
• The colours of the carpet are bright and vibrant, almost feeling as if you are looking through a canopy of flowers at a bright, blue summer sky. This breathtaking antique carpet is divided into a field and border that carry the floral motif throughout the entirety of the design. This gives it unity throughout, but the smaller florals in the border make it look as it the central design is surrounded by a delicate haze. This a true collector’s piece that would work beautifully in an Art Deco, Arts and Crafts or contemporary home or office. It is a beautiful and versatile carpet.
