Oversized Antique French Aubusson Rug with Floral Medallion - Rug & Kilim

About the Item

Hand-knotted in wool and originating in France circa 1850-75, this 11x16 Antique French Savonnerie rug in the Neoclassical style is a rare masterpiece from Rug & Kilim’s European rug collection. On the Design: This rug stands as a remarkable representation of the time-honored Neoclassical style, evident in its fine details and elegant sensibility. It enjoys a rich brown field underscoring a large-scale floral medallion in blue, pink, beige-brown, cream and green tones. The subtle variety of such complementary accents are masterfully employed, painting an immersive portrait of refined artistry. The border of repeating medallions further reinforces the neoclassical principles of order and balanced repetition, while maintaining the delicate floral language throughout. Altogether, this Mid-19th century piece is as deeply personal in its subtext as it is in the details and beauties that distinguish it in our craft—both a masterpiece and a true collector’s rug, teeming with history and culture. Condition: This Antique French Savonnerie rug is in good condition for its age and origin.
