About the Item
This enchanting Aubusson tapestry carpet from around 1870 radiates the gentle elegance and romantic refinement that defined the great French weaving ateliers of the 19th century. Its delicate pastel palette, centred around soft creams, petal pinks and muted greens, creates a serene and inviting impression. Graceful floral bouquets are scattered thoughtfully across the field, while the surrounding border is adorned with abundant roses entwined with slender blue ribbons, giving the piece an unmistakably French charm. Subtle architectural motifs in warm gold tones accentuate the inner frame, adding structure to the tapestry’s poetic design.
The carpet’s surface shows only minimal, age-appropriate spotting, which does not detract from its beauty but rather contributes to its authentic historical character. The weave remains harmonious and balanced, preserving the refined softness for which Aubusson textiles are celebrated. Despite its generous proportions, the piece feels light and airy, making it an ideal statement for both classic and romantic interiors.
As a genuine 19th-century Aubusson, this tapestry carpet embodies a bygone world of craftsmanship, artistic sensibility and timeless decorative grace. It is a piece that not only enhances a room, but enriches it with history, atmosphere and unmistakable French sophistication.
