\"Le Grand Pavon\" is a rare and captivating rug created in 1979 after a design by Salvador Dalí. Produced in Denmark by Ege Art, this piece beautifully translates Dalí\'s surreal imagination into textile form. The composition centres on a magnificent peacock that appears almost mythical, its elongated body flowing upward in a dramatic fusion of teal, rust, ochre, and amber tones. The figure feels both painterly and dreamlike, capturing the theatrical and symbolic quality that defines Dalí\'s artistic language.
Surrounding the central peacock are delicate, sketch-like winged figures that add movement and narrative depth to the scene. Their linear black outlines contrast with the richly textured wool background, enhancing a sense of dimension and surreal tension. The design evokes transformation, mythology, and subconscious imagery, all recurring themes in Dalí\'s work. The overall effect is expressive yet refined, making it a striking statement piece for both modern and classic interiors.
Crafted from pure new wool, the rug offers a dense, soft pile and exceptional durability. Ege Art was renowned in the 1970s for producing high-quality art textiles, and this example reflects their craftsmanship and attention to detail. The rug remains in great vintage condition, preserving the vibrancy of its colours and the integrity of its weave.
An especially significant detail is Dalí\'s woven signature along with his original crown symbol, both integrated directly into the design. These elements elevate the rug\'s collectability and reinforce its connection to the artist\'s original vision. \"Le Grand Pavon\" stands as a rare intersection of fine art and textile craftsmanship, offering not just decoration but a woven expression of surrealist legacy.
Authentic vintage Danish rugs by Ege Art are loom made with wool. Each one is an exceptional work of art and one of a kind.
Pictures are taken in natural light to portray the most realistic colours possible. Due to these rugs\' preloved nature, slight imperfections and flaws are not defects.
Our rugs are professionally restored, ensuring many more years of life. In addition, if you want to use the rug on the floor, we recommend using a grippy rug pad to keep it in place and smooth out any wrinkles from shipping. A rug pad will also safeguard your carpet from deterioration and, therefore, extend the life of your rug.
