What makes Bessarabian rugs so interesting is their highly decorative design. Such rug would not look out of place at the Palace of Versailles, so no wonder that so many of them were owned by nobility and aristocracy. However, Bessarabian rugs are still products of a specific culture - Easter European to be exact. They reflect trends dominant at the time of their weaving, giving us a unique opportunity to take a trip back in time. This stunning Bessarabian rug is a dream come true for any art lover. Made of the best available materials, it immediately charms with its beautiful pattern and color palette. The floral motif dominating the surface depicts a beautiful composition of flowers and leaves. The colors included in this design are mostly deep shades of brown, yellow, green, and black. Doris Leslie Blau's collection of both contemporary rugs and antique carpets contains only the best quality pieces, each of which was created with a great deal of attention and love. Our rugs were all handpicked in order to suit the tastes of our clientele and we are happy to know that our hard work is appreciated by the top interior design magazines in the industry, such as Architectural Digest or Elle Decor.

This circa-1900 antique European fragment rug features an ornate gilded abstraction surrounding a deep purple and green floral design and is framed on both sides with stylized leaves in varying shades of green, against a sky blue background. The subtle dark outline and general attention to detail in the turn of the century antique carpet fragment is suggestive of a renowned tradition. Rug production was introduced to Europe by the Moors of Spain between the eighth and thirteenth centuries. While antique oriental rugs initially had a significant influence on European rug designs, various regions came to develop their own unique styles and techniques over time. The ornate style of this particular fragment evokes French Savonnerie and Aubusson factories, which, starting in the 17th century, began producing some of the most exceptional classical European carpets of the last few hundred years.
