About the Item

Antique French Savonnerie Rug Doris Leslie Blau Size: 6'10" × 7'3" (208 × 220 cm) This exquisite 19th-century French Savonnerie rug beautifully exemplifies the refined aesthetic and exceptional craftsmanship associated with the historic Savonnerie weaving tradition. Handwoven in the 1870s, the rug boasts a stately square format and a richly decorative design, ideal for both classical interiors and more modern reinterpretations of historical styles. The design features a structured lattice pattern composed of intersecting floral garlands in soft peach tones, punctuated by delicate white rosettes that mark each crossing. The lattice rests on a deep, forest green field, providing elegant contrast and a sense of dimensionality. A graceful border of stylized laurel leaves frames the composition, enhancing its architectural symmetry and evoking classical French garden motifs. Executed in pure wool, the rug retains a soft, luxurious texture and muted patina acquired through time. The back reveals hand-sewn reinforcement tape, a common period feature, indicative of care in preservation and authenticity. 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.
