About the Item
Oversized Antique Savonnerie Rug from France at Doris Leslie Blau
Size: 15'0" × 19'9" (457 × 601 cm)
This magnificent Oversized Antique French Savonnerie rug, dating back to the early 20th century, is a celebration of classical elegance and refined craftsmanship. Woven in France around 1900, the piece reflects the grandeur of the Louis XV and Louis XVI styles, harmoniously merging Baroque exuberance with Rococo delicacy.
At the heart of the design is an oval central medallion filled with scattered floral sprays in gentle tones of rose, blush, and celadon green, which seem to float on a warm ivory field. The background is framed by a curvilinear, scrolling acanthus cartouche and punctuated with delicate floral garlands and bouquets, all meticulously rendered in soft pastel hues. The lush botanical ornamentation evokes the manicured charm of formal French gardens.
The border is richly defined by a bold red edge, enclosing scrolling foliage in olive and gold tones, with corner spandrels that echo the central floral themes. This carefully orchestrated symmetry and color palette—featuring ivory, ochre, soft greens, and reds—adds balance and a timeless sense of opulence.
Handwoven in the esteemed Savonnerie tradition, the rug is knotted in wool with a plush pile and displays the precision and depth typical of the French royal workshops originally established under Louis XIV. The back reveals a tightly woven foundation that confirms the exceptional quality and density of the weave.
This antique Savonnerie rug not only brings grandeur to any space but also stands as a testament to the rich artistic heritage of French decorative arts. Its grand scale makes it an ideal focal point for large formal rooms, galleries, or luxurious estates.
With its unique pattern and refined colors, this antique rug reflects the impeccable taste of Doris Leslie Blau’s selections. Offering both rare, high-end pieces and more accessible options, Doris Leslie Blau presents rugs in a wide spectrum of prices.
