Nazmiyal Collection
Woven in China during the late 19th century, this magnificent example of an antique Chinese embroidery textile features an exquisite medallion decorated with spacious vine scrolls. Luminescent flowers, gilt vine-scrolls, and graceful botanical motifs are artfully combined in a harmonious medallion. The calming negative space created by the creamy white background highlights the dimensional embroidered motifs and the airy Eastern composition. Elegant butterflies, a traditional symbol of joy, love, and longevity, appear throughout the naturalistic medallion along with sylvan branches and graceful scrolling tendrils. The artful shading and tonal highlights are juxtaposed against minute stamens, dainty antennas, and subtle stylized accents that are rendered with an astounding level of detail. These phenomenal attributes exemplify the masterful level of craftsmanship that this elegant antique Chinese embroidery textile represents.
Landry & Arcari Rugs and Carpeting

This vintage Moroccan rug was created circa 1950. Although made in the traditional way, it is distinguished by a very modern look. The whole field is covered with a shaggy purple-and-beige pile. The backing is pitch black, and so are the tassels which put the finishing touch on the composition. The rug was made by the hand of high-quality wool in accordance with centuries-old techniques. Careful making ensured its durability – the rug’s charm is alive and well as time has taken nearly no toll on it. Provided minimal care, it will serve its owners for generations without any signs of wear. From versatile flatweaves to shaggy hand-knotted area rugs or runners, Moroccan rugs are both decorative and functional. They are valued for their technical qualities, expert use of fibers, great tensile strength, and abrasion resistance. Without a doubt, the original tribal Moroccan rugs from the Doris Leslie Blau collection bring character and a touch of worldliness to an interior.
A modern-looking second quarter 20th-century Moroccan carpet, the camel field with an overall lozenge lattice containing addorsed brown triangles. In modern times, the Berber weaving tradition has evolved to suit the contemporary market and it incorporates a wider mix of materials. Today, Berbers also weave rich and robust rag vintage rugs that incorporate many bright colors. Beyond the tradition of the Berber tribes, Moroccan Rugs also come in an array of styles and patterns developed in distinct modes in different cities throughout the country. The patterns found in Moroccan bath rugs developed in urban centers are quite different since weavers living in the cities traditionally had more exposure to wider influences, thanks to international trade. In places like Fez, Rabat, Tangier, and Marrakesh, Moroccan antique carpet weavers were more likely to incorporate designs informed by Turkish and other international weaving traditions – floral designs, patterned borders, diamonds, etc. From versatile flatweaves to shaggy hand-knotted area rugs or runners, Moroccan rugs are both decorative and functional. They are valued for their technical qualities, expert use of fibers, great tensile strength, and abrasion resistance. Without a doubt, the original tribal Moroccan rugs from the Doris Leslie Blau collection bring character and a touch of worldliness to an interior.

This circa-1940 vintage Moroccan rug features an all-over design of a lozenge lattice outlined sharply in dark brown against a field of natural cream. At once modern and evocative of traditional tribal elements, the vintage carpet bag is part of the rich rug-weaving tradition of morocco. Moroccan rugs have typically been woven by tribal peoples for their utility rather than for decoration. These antique rugs in NYC experienced a growth in popularity in the west when mid-century modern designers such as Le Corbusier paired the thick piled Berber rugs with their minimalist furniture. Many of these Berber carpets are woven by the Beni ourain peoples from the Rif mountains near the city of Taza in northern morocco. Colors vary from neutral shades to bright, stand-out hues, with designs ranging from geometric simplicity to free-flowing abstraction. The primitivist feel of many Moroccan-style rugs makes them attractive to modernist collectors. From versatile flatweaves to shaggy hand-knotted area rugs or runners, Moroccan rugs are both decorative and functional. They are valued for their technical qualities, expert use of fibers, great tensile strength, and abrasion resistance. Without a doubt, the original tribal Moroccan rugs from the Doris Leslie Blau collection bring character and a touch of worldliness to an interior.
