About the Item

Antique French Savonnerie Rug Size: 8'4" × 14'1" (254 × 429 cm). Color: beige, blue, brown, gold, green, pink, purple. This exquisite French Savonnerie rug from the early 20th century epitomizes classical elegance and refined European craftsmanship. Woven circa 1900, the rug showcases the opulent aesthetic of traditional Savonnerie designs, originally commissioned for French nobility and aristocratic interiors. At the center of the composition lies a delicately rendered floral bouquet surrounded by soft scrollwork, evoking the refined grace of Rococo and Neoclassical styles. The intricate arabesques in warm blush, gold, powder blue, and cream tones frame the central medallion, all set against a soft dusty rose field. Each corner mirrors this elegant symmetry, further enhanced by acanthus leaf flourishes and graceful volutes. The border is a triumph of balance and ornamentation, featuring a laurel-leaf and floral garland motif on a rich blue ground, offset by warm rust-red and soft ivory medallions. This finely orchestrated framing device brings cohesion and richness to the composition, while also grounding the light and airy floral core. Handwoven in wool, the tapestry-like surface is supple yet durable, reflecting the traditional Savonnerie weaving technique that was historically reserved for royal commissions. This rug would make a stunning focal point in a formal sitting room, gallery, or classical interior, offering both history and beauty in equal measure. 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.
