About the Item

72342 Antique Austrian Savonnerie Palace Size Rug with Aristocratic Medieval Style 15'00 x 36'00. From cozy casual to manor formal, relish the romance as this antique Austrian Savonnerie palace size rug characterizes the Aristocratic Medieval style combined with the formal grace and elegance of French Victorian style. Set off with its highly decorative aesthetic and sophisticated level of contrast, this antique palace size rug displays a combination of exquisitely balanced flora, fauna, and botanical designs in an idyllic rhythm throughout this enticing composition. The sense of flight is evident throughout the rug as the predators hunt their prey. With its eccentric hunting scene and the attention to detail, this antique Savonnerie is unlike any other as it allows the viewer to continuously discover fascinating subjects, from cheetahs (leopards) and tigers to the phoenix and flying birds. With arabesque swirls and Austrian delight, this antique beauty and its breathtaking fluidity is sweeping us away a century later. Fluid, feminine, eccentric and intricate, this elegant Savonnerie will easily integrate into glamorous modern rooms and not just opulent period interiors. Savonnerie rugs can enhance many decorating styles such as clean traditional, mid-century modern and Neoclassical which differentiates them from the more linear and geometric designs of the later art deco period. Their connection with French royalty, magnificent arabesque patterns and beautiful craftsmanship make Savonnerie rugs the go-to item for designers aiming to create a prestigious statement. Embodying a refined Medieval style and drawing inspiration from King Henry VIII of England, this antique palace size rug will enliven nearly any opulent period-interior with color and vitality.

  • Antique Rugs, French Savonnerie Carpet, Beige Floral Carpet Rug
    Located in Hampshire, GB
    During the early seventeenth century, a weaver named Pierre DuPont travelled to the Levant. Upon his return, he claimed to have discovered the technique of creating Turkish rugs. Oriental rugs were extremely expensive during Bourbon times, and a French manufactory that could create the same type of rug would lower the price significantly. Henri VI of France–the reigning monarch at the time–took advantage of DuPont’s skills and established a workshop for him at the Louvre. In 1627, King Louis XIII founded a manufactory for DuPont and his apprentice, Simon Lourdes, on the site of a defunct soap factory in the sixteenth arrondissement (also known as Quai de Chaillot). The name “Savonnerie” was born from the French word “Savon” meaning “soap.” DuPont and Lourdes worked together, weaving rugs under a royal patent for the king and other nobles until they had a falling out and split up. Lourdes remained at the Chaillot location while DuPont went to his workshops in the Louvre, though both continued to make Savonnerie rugs.
