This 14x16 antique Aubusson rug is an exciting new addition to Rug & Kilim’s European rug collection—a masterpiece of the French Neoclassical flatweave style, handwoven in wool and believed to originate from France circa 1880-1890.
On the Design:
Rich chocolate brown, burnt umber, and clay tones underscore a play of open field and medallion style floral patterns. Both the architectural borders and finely detailed botanicals favor a play of mint green, pink, peachy orange and similar, bright tones that play beautifully together here. Admirers of the craft will particularly note this rug’s masterful execution of symmetry, scale, and movement among its countless beauties—all exemplary of the French tapestry weave style, like few that remain of its kind today. It’s also an oversized rug, with a particularly versatile large size with vast applications in interior design today.
Condition:
This antique Aubusson rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin—an extremely collectible late-19th-century rug for designers and collectors alike, worthy of the most special projects. less
