Doris Leslie Blau 19th Century Aubusson Round Handmade Wool Rug

About the Item

Authentic 19th Century Aubusson round handmade wool rug Size: 13'8" × 13'8" (416 × 416 cm) A circle rug – fine example of late 19th century French country rugs on an ice blue field with the Classical central medallion with architectural elements embedded in the center, surrounded by scrolling romantic vines and bouquets of flowers. The Savonnerie rug factory, located on the site of the present Musee d’Art Moderne, inherited its name from the soap making factory it took over at the behest of Louis XIII. From 1660 until 1743 Savonnerie was a manufacture royale, carrying out commissions for French Aubusson rugs and classical European carpets specifically designed for the Royal Palaces. In the 1770s, the tapestry looms at Aubusson in the Creuze Valley near Limoges were converted to produce flat-woven rugs and antique oriental rugs under royal warrant. Showcasing the finest materials and patterns, this design is part of the expansive Doris Leslie Blau collection, renowned for its rare and unique finds across a wide range of prices.
