What is Aubusson style?
Aubusson style is often used to describe a certain type of pileless, flat-woven rug. The name comes from the region in France where the style originated during the 14th century. Furniture, pillows and tapestries may also be Aubusson style, meaning they feature the same crafting techniques and decorative themes as the rugs. You'll find a selection of Aubusson rugs on 1stDibs.
