French Savonnerie rugs are luxurious handwoven carpets that originated in the 17th century, commissioned for royal palaces and aristocratic residences. Known for their elaborate floral motifs, rich colors, and intricate scrollwork, these rugs were influenced by Baroque and Rococo artistic styles. Crafted from fine wool, Savonnerie rugs showcase exceptional craftsmanship, often featuring central medallions, ornate borders, and a sense of grandeur that reflects their royal heritage.
