About the Item

Hand-knotted in wool and originating in France circa 1875-1900, this 12x14 Antique French Savonnerie rug in the Neoclassical style is a rare masterpiece from Rug & Kilim’s European rug collection. On the Design: Keen eyes will admire the mellow tones of blush pink, powder blue, and gold, among other subtle complementary hues that together create a truly captivating visual softness. A masterpiece boasting remarkable delicacy in its details and inherently graceful presence, it features delicate floral borders framing a central floral medallion—all imbued with a feminine beauty and gentle sensibility that are hallmarks of this sophisticated weaving style. This marriage of color and elaborate, sophisticated style exemplifies Josh’s favorite Savonnerie carpets of this period. Altogether, this late 19th century piece is as deeply personal in its subtext as it is in the details and beauties that distinguish it in our craft—both a masterpiece and a true collector’s rug, teeming with aristocratic charm. Condition: This Antique French Savonnerie rug is in good condition for its age and origin.
