About the Item
Chinese Aubusson Carpet, circa 1950–1960
This impressive Chinese Aubusson carpet, woven circa 1950–1960, is a superb example of mid-20th-century craftsmanship inspired by the great French Aubusson tradition. Produced during a period when Chinese workshops mastered European classical designs with remarkable technical finesse, this piece combines refined decorative language with exceptional material quality.
The composition follows the classic Aubusson idiom: a richly ornamented central medallion framed by scrolling acanthus, floral garlands, and finely articulated borders. The palette is both elegant and timeless, dominated by a deep navy blue ground that enhances the soft pastel tones of ivory, blush, sage green, and muted gold. This chromatic balance gives the carpet a stately presence without heaviness, making it equally suited to grand classical interiors or more eclectic, curated spaces.
Measuring an imposing 430 cm x 309 cm, this is a large, heavy carpet, woven with a dense pile that conveys both durability and luxury underfoot. The weight and handle are immediately perceptible, reflecting the high-quality wool and meticulous weaving techniques characteristic of the best Chinese Aubusson productions of the period.
The carpet is offered in excellent condition. It has been professionally cleaned, with colors remaining fresh and harmonious, and with no structural issues to note. The pile is even, the borders well preserved, and the overall appearance is crisp and refined.
A distinguished decorative statement, this Chinese Aubusson carpet is ideal for anchoring a formal salon, dining room, library, or master bedroom—an elegant synthesis of European design tradition and mid-century Chinese artisanal mastery.
