Antique Wilton Rug with Arts & Crafts Pattern in Pastel Colors, circa 1910
About the Item
Following the closure of the Axminster manufactory in Devonshire in 1835, the demand for floral carpets made in the Rococo Revival style was supplied by the Wilton Royal Carpet Factory, located in Salisbury, although the term ‘Axminster’ was still employed for the finest quality pieces, particularly for those woven from 1860 onwards, when Alfred Lapworth bought the factory from the Blackmore family (see S.B. Sherrill, Carpets and Rugs of Europe and America (New York, 1995): 231-232). While the design borrows considerably from the French Savonnerie repertoire, the tone-on-tone employed for the background as well as the meander outer border are characteristic of the early Arts & Crafts and Liberty styles which were prevalent in England towards the beginning of the 20th century, yet substantially different from the Irish Donegal carpets of the same period.

- Antique Voysey Arts & Crafts Rug in Green with Floral PatternsLocated in Long Island City, NYHand-knotted in wool circa 1900-1910, this 9x11 antique Arts & Crafts rug is believed to be a rare work from C.F.A. Voysey. On the Design: This particular Voysey rug is believed to originate in Ireland, given its similarities to Donegal rugs of this provenance. Its design further hosts the quintessential open field that connoisseurs often associate with this artist’s signature style—though open field designs are especially collectible in handmade rugs today. The colorway enjoys chartreuse and similar greens, with bright blues and pinks in its borders and floral patterns. Its particular use of botanicals and garlands around the field lead the eye naturally to the more subtle patterns in the center—almost akin to greenery around rippling water in a pond, like many paintings of the same movement in this era. Connoisseurs will admire this as a collectible as much as an elegant masterpiece of its period—exemplary of Voysey’s European rugs. Condition: This antique botanical rug...Category
