Antique French Aubusson Floral Handwoven Wool Rug

French Aubusson rugs are considered crème de la crème of all European carpets. This antique French rug clearly shows what is the reason behind this widespread recognition. Created at the very beginning of the 20th century, the piece boasts a classy architectural and botanical design, featuring a decorative central medallion surrounded by a stylized cartouche with delicate touches of floral motifs.

The warm and quite neutral color palette of this antique rug constitutes a counterweight to the opulent pattern. Shades of chocolate brown, sandy beige, ivory, gray, and mocca, subtly invigorated due to fuchsia, carmine, and extinguished green accents on the flowers, coexist in absolute harmony, Such a versatile composition will seamlessly fit into any kind of interior arrangement, from traditional to contemporary.

In terms of workmanship, the antique French Aubusson rug meets all the expectations of a conscious buyer. It was meticulously hand-knotted of the finest wool in accordance with old and refined techniques. Such a thorough making made it possible for the antique carpet to survive until today in perfect condition. If properly maintained, the piece will serve its owners for generations, bringing in the never-fading glamour of French craftsmanship.
