About the Item

This exquisite rug by Stark, woven using the flat-weave tapestry technique, showcases the hallmarks of classic Aubusson craftsmanship—an intricate floral pattern in soft beige, ivory, coral, and verdant green hues, framed by a meticulously designed geometric border. The delicate, painterly quality of the floral motifs reflects the influence of Rococo and Neoclassical design, which emphasized natural elegance, balance, and symmetry. The town of Aubusson, located in central France, became a center for handwoven tapestries and carpets as early as the 16th century, earning royal recognition under King Louis XIV. During the reign of Napoleon I, Aubusson carpets were further elevated in prestige, with commissions for imperial palaces and diplomatic gifts. Today, authentic Aubusson carpets remain highly sought after by collectors, designers, and connoisseurs of historic textiles. With generous dimensions of 16’4” x 10’7”, this exceptional rug serves as a striking centerpiece for a grand salon, formal dining room, or stately library, evoking the elegance of French aristocratic interiors. Whether placed in a classically inspired setting or a more contemporary space, its timeless palette and refined ornamentation ensure it remains a distinguished work of art. This piece does have some bleeding and minor damage.
