Vintage Art Deco Round European French Allover Knotted Rug, Country of Origin: France, Circa Date: 1960s. This exceptional round piece is an excellent example of abstract expressionism realized in textile form. Originating in a French workshop, it captures the artistic freedom of the mid-century era, moving decisively away from traditional geometry. The palette is dominated by a sophisticated, ethereal field of light gray color, layered with washes of cream, soft pink, and pale yellow. Bold, sweeping strokes of deep black and burnt sienna define the perimeter and central elements, giving the composition a dynamic, almost celestial energy reminiscent of planetary forms or macro photography. While the composition is highly abstract, the overall effect is an allover rug design, where the pattern flows seamlessly across the entire round field without a defined border or medallion.
