About the Item
Beautiful Large Square Size Antique French Aubusson Rug, Country of Origin: France, Circa Date: Mid 19th Century. Size: 17 ft x 18 ft 5 in (5.18 m x 5.61 m)
This magnificent antique french Aubusson carpet stands out as an exquisite piece for the collector of mid 19th century antiquities. The first thing that stands out is its striking use of color with bright reds and ivories against a dark background. This is only one of the many features that stands out about this impressive piece. This impressive antique French carpet was produced by the carpet works of Aubusson, France using traditional techniques that allowed them to produce antique carpets that were some of the finest in the world.
The carpet features a garden lattice, surrounded by a delicate frame with knot work and highly detailed floral bouquets. The border itself is a spectacular feature of the highly detailed large oversized carpet. The field is in allover design that features a multitude of floral designs in the center of the latticework. Each of these floral designs is carried out using shading that gives it a three-dimensional effect. Each one looks as if it were painted by an artist with a fine brush. This is a masterwork by one of the most famous carpet weaving centers in all of Europe.
This antique French Aubusson rug brings vibrant color and patterns together in order to create a masterpiece. A dark background creates pleasing contrast to the burnt orange and gold that makes this rug so unique. Light pink, orange, blue and white flowers pop out from within their individual crenelated circles to create a beautifully unique piece. Around the border, rows of multicolored flowers guard the center of the rug. Each color, pattern and flower come together perfectly to create a piece that flows beautifully across the floor.

A French Aubusson rug refers to a type of flat-weave rug that originated in the town of Aubusson, located in the Creuse region of central France. These rugs have a long history dating back to the 15th century, and they are renowned for their exquisite craftsmanship, intricate designs, and fine materials. Exuding an aura of true decadence, this Late 19th Century antique French Aubusson rug emerges as a mesmerizing testament to handwoven beauty. Its intricate details and luxurious texture captivate the senses, offering a glimpse into the opulent world of Aubusson craftsmanship. At its heart lies an elaborate design reminiscent of a palatial facade. A central acanthus leaf oval ceiling medallion, outlined by complementary scrollwork, evokes romantic connotations, while an array of quincunx motifs, reminiscent of the ceiling designs by Jules-Edmond-Charles Lachaise and Eugene-Pierre Gourdet, adorn the field in an alluring pattern. Trompe l'oeil filigree adorns a delicate light pink oval band encircling the inner composition, where a rose festoon intertwines with a floral swag, adding a touch of delicate elegance. Resplendent round cartouche pendants dangle from an undulating ribbon band entwined with floral swag borders, further enhancing the rug's grandeur. This antique Aubusson rug is enclosed by an acanthus ribbon border, coupled with an outer scallop border, creating a refined frame for its formal composition. These design elements, customary for Aubusson arrangements, showcase the style's predominant French influence, featuring ornate armorial medallions within intricate borders of rinceaux and garnished foliage. But it is not only the embellishments that captivate; the extraordinary use of color adds depth and allure to the rug's narrative. Each hue harmonizes with the next, creating a mesmerizing dance that speaks with a timeless voice of sensual decadence and stately elegance. In its entirety, this Aubusson masterpiece weaves together the tender, emotive, and vibrant details of human history, embodying the grand charm of a textile that transcends time, leaving an indelible mark on those who behold its beauty.
