Its design favors beige and taupe undertones, with elegant medallions and floral patterns in the French tapestry weave style. On the design: Admirers of the craft will appreciate the sheer feat of labor to create such a large-size flatweave as this. Its unusually large cartouches draw the eye to appreciate a seamless flow and immersive, subtle details without end. Punctuations of gold, pink and hues rich and forgiving alike play beautifully together in the field and border alike. It’s a masterpiece among few of its period, and an extremely collectible piece of European rug history in kind. Condition: This antique Aubusson rug style further enjoys good condition for its age and origin.

Antique Ivory French Aubusson Rug. Size: 10 ft x 13 ft 6 in
Located in New York, NY
Stunning antique French Aubusson rug, country of origin: France, date circa 1900 - Size: 10 ft x 13 ft 6 in (3.05 m x 4.11 m). This delicate French Aubusson rug has a dreamy, romantic feel. It was created around the turn of the 20th century. Even though it is over 100 years old, it is the perfect piece for several contemporary design trends. This piece is recognizably an Aubusson that uses softer pinks and pastels, which is a hallmark of Aubusson works. This carpet is a finely woven tapestry. It has a backing to protect it from wear. The design has a Rococo feel with its sweeping curves, scrollwork, and trompe l’oeil floral patterns. Curvy, natural forms are a characteristic of late Baroque and Victorian design. This carpet would be perfectly at home in a formal room with gilding, elegant antique furniture, and brocades throughout. It has a classic feel that is refined and elegant. It also has an aged look that gives it a shabby chic feel, too. Romance pink and millennial pink are among the most popular color trends...
