"19th Century Aubusson Carpet In Petit Point, Napoleon III Style - No. 1396"
This magnificent rug has undergone a thorough cleaning, hand-lined with 100% linen fabric, and meticulous inspection by our experts in our workshop. It is now ready to grace your home. This French rug, made in Aubusson using the petit point technique in the Napoleon III style, features a highly structured and symmetrical design, organized around a delicately drawn floral central medallion. The dark background (midnight blue/deep black) highlights a refined palette of cream, ivory, beige, powder pink, almond green, and burgundy tones. The motifs are rich and elegant: leafy scrolls, stylized flowers, palmettes, and arabesques, typical of 19th-century decorative taste. The multiple, finely crafted borders frame the whole with great precision, reinforcing the classic and prestigious character of the rug. The petit point work lends a high level of detail, akin to a tapestry, with a highly decorative and harmonious effect. Size: 170 x 180 cm, ideal for a living room, office, or reception room.
