Antique French Aubusson Rug Doris Leslie Blau

About the Item

Antique French Aubusson Rug Doris Leslie Blau Size: 9'7" × 14'8" (292 × 447 cm) This elegant antique French Aubusson unfolds on a softly variegated beige ground shot through with the slightest abrash of pale taupe. At its heart is a restrained round medallion of acanthus scrolls and stylized rosettes, worked in warm chocolate-brown. Each corner mirrors this flourish with a quarter-medallion of curling leaves and blossom heads. The field itself is sparingly sprinkled with small flower-sprays and leaf clusters—each petal and lobe rendered in lighter or darker shades of beige to create subtle depth. A broad main border of linked cartouches frames the composition, its panels containing miniature floral bouquets and arabesque vine tracery in rich brown against a cream-beige ground. Inside and outside this, slender guard stripes feature delicate trailing vines and tiny rosettes in the same two-tone palette. The low, even hand-knotted wool pile carries a soft, matte finish and gentle variations in color that lend the rug a quietly aged, watercolor-washed patina. With its harmonious beige-and-brown palette, classical Aubusson motifs, and generous scale, this carpet brings refined, formal grace—and a touch of French country elegance—to a living room, dining suite, or library. Offered by Doris Leslie Blau, a premier source for vintage and antique rugs, this piece is an authentic example of post-war Swedish weaving—valued for its craftsmanship, design clarity, and enduring style. Doris Leslie Blau offers a wide range of pricing tailored to collectors, designers, and discerning homeowners—from accessible vintage gems to exclusive investment-level pieces.
