Vintage Miro Inspired Art Deco Runner Rug, Country of Origin: Europe, Circa Date: Mid 20th Century – Crafted in Europe during the height of the modernist movement, this stellar vintage rug has a unique personality that embodies all of the delightful traits of abstract expressionism. The bold colors and ambiguous creatures have lively animated faces and a passionate sense of style. The beautifully mottled background showcases an exquisite combination of creamy white details, azure hues and blushing pinks that have a subtle rainbow-like iridescence. Strong, thick charcoal outlines cut a clear path across the textural background while emphasizing the pure colors and the intensity of the bold geometric figures. Quirky details, vibrant colors and wild accents give this enthralling rug a delightful abstract style that conforms to modernist ideals.
