About the Item

This pair of 4x8 antique Aubusson runner rugs are an exciting new addition to Rug & Kilim’s European rug collection—a masterpiece of the French Neoclassical flatweave style and one of a rare pair of twin pieces of the same size, both handwoven in wool and believed to originate from France circa 1910-1920. On the Design: Keen eyes for detail will particularly note these rugs’ masterful execution of symmetry, scale, and movement among their countless beauties—all exemplary of the French tapestry weave style, like few that remain of its kind today. The colorway is one of the most delicious elements here, where blush pink and ice blue tones are favored in the medallion and floral patterns beside cream-white, gold and beige-brown tones. So too is the detailing, not just in the quintessential sense of impressionism of an Aubusson like those in the cartouches, but in the graceful subtlety of the field’s execution of muted florals. This honestly brings more attention to the finesse of their execution, and an element dimension that’s exceptional even for this provenance renowned for its works of majesty and detail. They are also versatile-sized rugs, with an almost open field, with vast applications in interior design today. Altogether these pieces are as deeply personal in their subtext as they are in the details and beauties that distinguish them in our craft—both masterpieces and true collector’s rugs, teeming with history and culture. Admirers of the craft will further appreciate this rug and its twin among the few we’ve ever seen of this particularly arresting open field style—such a fabulous choice in its arresting, elegant sense of depth and dimensionality. Condition: This Antique Aubusson rug is in great condition for its age and origin. Both pieces are available for purchase as a set or as individual runners, upon request.

Antique Ivory French Aubusson Rug. Size: 10 ft x 13 ft 6 in
Located in New York, NY
Stunning antique French Aubusson rug, country of origin: France, date circa 1900 - Size: 10 ft x 13 ft 6 in (3.05 m x 4.11 m). This delicate French Aubusson rug has a dreamy, romantic feel. It was created around the turn of the 20th century. Even though it is over 100 years old, it is the perfect piece for several contemporary design trends. This piece is recognizably an Aubusson that uses softer pinks and pastels, which is a hallmark of Aubusson works. This carpet is a finely woven tapestry. It has a backing to protect it from wear. The design has a Rococo feel with its sweeping curves, scrollwork, and trompe l’oeil floral patterns. Curvy, natural forms are a characteristic of late Baroque and Victorian design. This carpet would be perfectly at home in a formal room with gilding, elegant antique furniture, and brocades throughout. It has a classic feel that is refined and elegant. It also has an aged look that gives it a shabby chic feel, too. Romance pink and millennial pink are among the most popular color trends...
