Beautiful Gallery Size Vintage Antonin Kybal French Kilim Rug, Country of Origin / Rug Type: French Rugs, Circa Date: Mid 20th Century – Through the use of striking colors and powerfully grounded elements, this beautiful French rug exemplifies the best of the art deco style of rugs. This beautiful Kilim rug features a heavy amount of motion by establishing a single jagged line that runs vertically down the beautiful surface. The rigid form of the jagged shapes in the line result in a powerful degree of grounding that can break up flowing motions in a relatively minimalist or freely flowing environment. Though the vintage rug’s shapes add necessary definition and grounding, the colors chosen to complement the gentle beige background create a whimsical environment, one that contrasts and supports the forms within. Bright red, sunshine yellow and sage green fill out several of the teeth made by the jagged lines, colored in at random sections of the gallery size rug to draw attention to the gorgeous forms within as a whole.
