Large Aubusson Rug With Small Point 465 X 455 Cm
Aubusson rugs come from a long weaving tradition in France, more precisely in the town of Aubusson (Nouvelle-Aquitaine region).
Renowned since the 15th century, these rugs are today synonymous with luxury, elegance, and refinement.
Inspired by classical French styles (Louis XV, Louis XVI, Rococo, Neoclassical), they are often floral, with central medallions, garlands, arabesques, or pastoral scenes.
The Aubusson factory has been renowned for the excellence of its production since the 17th century, for French rugs and tapestries. First Royal, Imperial, and then National, it supplied official palaces and prominent aristocratic families.
"Petit Point" Technique :
"Petit point" refers to a very fine embroidery technique, executed by hand, stitch by stitch, often on a dense canvas. This allows for exceptional precision in the rendering of the patterns. Made of wool (sometimes blended with silk), embroidered on a linen or cotton canvas base.
Woven border on the back.
The rug has a (separate) jute canvas that has never been woven on the back.
Size : 465x455 cm
Condition : Very good condition, there is a noticeable color difference on the wine-red background in the border.
