Description
This new Aubusson wool rug from Rug & Kilim features an antique design inspired by 19th century pieces central France. The floral drawings depict cartouches hung with garlands, resembling Neoclassical and architectural designs. Pieces of this style were commissioned for aristocracy, as seen in the deliberate curvilinear style and the choice of chestnut brown, Beige/Brown, and pink. Hand woven in thick wool pile. These rare, sophisticated designs became extremely popular in the 19th century, though this piece has a similar texture to 18th century designs, including a number of different yarns woven in a high-quality workshop. Quick and easy to clean.
