20th Century Brown & Orange Floreal Square Austrian Savonnerie, Early 1900

About the Item

The new taste of furniture introduced in the early years of the twentieth century also involves carpets, which must be combined with furniture and upholstery. European production of hand-knotted carpets is radically renewed. Abandoned the classic redundant themes of the carpets of the aristocratic palaces, they chose elegant designs, but at the same time very essential, more suitable for the apartments of the bourgeoisie, which had established itself as well as politically on a cultural and taste level. Our Savonnerie of Austrian production, has a uniform chocolate background, with a white ramage and orange bellflower. Three colors only for an elegant carpet that recalls the wallpaper very fashionable in those years. Although in a dark shade this rug is bright and the fluffy wool with the big knot give the rug a high thickness.

The productions of Savonerie over the years have become multiple, the most popular in addition to the French are the Spanish and Austrian. They were manufactories created specifically to produce large carpets intended for sumptuous noble palaces.
