About the Item

Exquisite 19th Century French Aubusson Rug Doris Leslie Blau Size: 13'7" × 18'2" (414 × 553 cm) This striking 19th-century French Aubusson rug exemplifies the refined artistry and decorative elegance associated with the famed Aubusson weaving ateliers of France. Woven with exceptional craftsmanship, this piece features a resplendent and orderly all-over pattern that captures the essence of Rococo and Neoclassical design. The composition is structured around a carefully balanced grid of alternating circular and octagonal medallions. The circular medallions are framed by wreaths of richly shaded, vibrant pink roses, and feature central floral rosettes—each distinct in coloration and petal arrangement—evoking the naturalistic finesse characteristic of French floral design. In contrast, the octagonal medallions offer a serene counterbalance, housing stylized flowers surrounded by laurel leaves in subdued tones of ivory, sky blue, dusty rose, and gold. The backdrop is a beautifully muted terra cotta or faded brick-red field that has mellowed with time, imparting warmth and a sense of historical depth. Delicate clusters of golden acanthus leaves and botanical motifs are woven in between the medallions, adding rhythm and unity to the design. A narrow ochre and beige border encloses the entire field, allowing the central design to remain the primary visual focus. This flat-woven tapestry rug is not only a decorative masterpiece but also a testament to the artistic and technical brilliance of 19th-century French textile production. Its elegant symmetry, sophisticated color palette, and floral ornamentation make it a superb choice for both traditional and transitional interiors. Whether placed in a grand salon, refined library, or formal dining room, this antique Aubusson rug promises to infuse the space with historic charm, romanticism, and timeless beauty. With its unique pattern and refined colors, this vintage rug reflects the impeccable taste of Doris Leslie Blau’s selections. Offering both rare, high-end pieces and more accessible options, Doris Leslie Blau presents rugs in a wide spectrum of prices.
