The Antique Oversized Savonnerie French Knotted Rug is an exceptional 18th-century European textile dating back to the 1750s. Hand-knotted in France from wool, this rectangular rug features a grand central medallion framed by intricate blue acanthus scrolls and lush floral motifs, including detailed roses and garlands. Its sophisticated palette contrasts rich ochre and tan tones with a luminous ivory and white center, embodying the luxurious Rococo aesthetic. Originally commissioned for palatial interiors like grand salons, this oversized piece showcases the technical skill of the royal manufactories. With a 0.5-inch pile height and the profound patina of history, this Savonnerie rug remains a significant historical document of the French weaving tradition and artistic ambition.
