About the Item
Antique French Aubusson Rug
Size: 6'3" × 9'3" (190 × 281 cm)
This exquisite French Aubusson rug from the early 20th century is a beautiful example of the elegance and refinement associated with classical European tapestry weaving. Handwoven in France circa 1900, the piece displays the soft romanticism and symmetrical structure that define Aubusson craftsmanship, traditionally rooted in the Louis XV and Louis XVI decorative arts.
At the heart of the composition is an expansive medallion of lush floral bouquets, intricately woven in an arrangement of pale pinks, ivories, blush, and lavender. These flowers, set in gentle contrast with leafy vines and soft golden highlights, form a dynamic wreath-like structure. The central field is anchored by a symmetrical floral medallion, surrounded by a cascade of blooming roses, peonies, and smaller blossoms that seem to spill into the rest of the rug.
The border is defined by classic Rococo-style scrollwork corners and winding acanthus leaves, which frame the composition in rich earthy tones of mocha, rosewood, and taupe, enhancing the three-dimensional quality and baroque sophistication of the design.
Handwoven in wool with a tapestry weave, this rug has a low, flat pile that allows for the precise detailing of the intricate floral motifs. The condition shows subtle patina and gentle wear consistent with its age, lending it a timeworn charm that only enhances its antique authenticity.
A remarkable Aubusson rug, from Doris Leslie Blau Collection, features a timeless elegance. Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
