About the Item

Antique French Aubusson Rug – Botanical Elegance in Grandeur Size: 11'8" × 16'2" (355 × 492 cm) A stunning example of 19th-century French craftsmanship, this Antique Aubusson rug from circa 1880 epitomizes the opulence and artistry of the Louis XV and Louis XVI decorative periods. Woven in France’s renowned Aubusson workshops, this monumental flat-weave, making it ideally suited for large formal interiors, ballrooms, or grand salons. The rug showcases an extraordinary symmetric botanical composition, centered around a radiant rosette medallion flanked by swirling acanthus leaves, floral garlands, and stylized palmettes. The border features a restrained lozenge pattern, elegantly framing the floral burst within. Its design channels the finesse of classical French tapestries, emphasizing scrollwork and foliate patterns rendered with painterly precision. The earthy golden-beige background sets the stage for a vibrant yet harmonious color palette of soft terracotta, pastel blues, muted coral, ochre, ivory, and dusty lavender, all masterfully shaded to create a sense of dimensionality and flow. The delicate tonal transitions and clarity of detail reveal the exceptional skill of the artisans, as well as the rug's original decorative purpose within a high-style European interior. Woven using the flat-weave tapestry technique, this rug is entirely pileless, resulting in a smooth, textile-like surface ideal for showcasing the painterly finesse of its floral motifs. Despite its age, the rug has maintained its structure and beauty, exhibiting only mild patina consistent with age, which adds to its antique charm. Whether displayed in a classical, eclectic, or maximalist interior, this French Aubusson carpet offers timeless sophistication and decorative versatility. It is not only a floor covering but a true piece of textile art, worthy of collectors and connoisseurs of fine European antiques. A rare piece from the Doris Leslie Blau Collection, this rug exemplifies superior artistry and tradition. Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
