About the Item

This pair of 4x8 antique Aubusson runner rugs are an exciting new addition to Rug & Kilim’s European rug collection—both masterpieces of the French Neoclassical flatweave style and twin pieces of the same size, each handwoven in wool and believed to originate from France circa 1910-1920. 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. Their 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 set 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 in each runner. Condition: These antique Aubusson rugs are in both good condition for their age and origin. Both pieces are available for purchase as a set or as individual runners, upon request.
