Before you is a hand-knotted wool Aubusson Savonnerie rug tied at 150 knots per square inch, with a sage green and gold medallion at its center. Pink roses and cream flowers dot the medallion, and the dark olive field around it carries sweeping scrolls in gold and tan. A border of chain links in tan and green frames the whole design. The gold glows against the deep green, which keeps the center bright and easy to read from across the room. The dense pile is pet and kid friendly and wears evenly, and peach fringe finishes each end. A low-suction vacuum with the beater bar off is all the upkeep it needs. Green and gold pair easily with cream, brown and soft pinks. A traditional area rug in classic European style, it suits anyone who loves green with a touch of rose.

Story Behind the Art: Savonnerie rugs trace their origins to the renowned Savonnerie Manufactory in France, the most prestigious producer of knotted pile rugs during its golden era from 1650 to 1685. The name "Savonnerie" has since come to represent a distinct tradition of French rug-making, known for its luxurious textures, regal aesthetics, and intricate artistry. These rugs often feature framed medallions either pictorial or armorial surrounded by lush bouquets, leafy rinceaux, and elaborate floral motifs, typically set against rich backgrounds of deep blue, black, or brown and enclosed within multiple ornate borders. What sets French Aubusson Savonnerie rugs apart is their pioneering use of depth perspective a technique developed by 17th-century French artists and weavers to create a sense of three-dimensionality in the design. Characterized by symmetrical knots, vivid color palettes, and exuberant patterns, these rugs remain timeless symbols of elegance. Today, their legacy lives on through skilled reproductions crafted in India, Pakistan, China, and Iran, allowing collectors and design enthusiasts to continue enjoying this classic French art form.
