A striking antique red Aubusson, hand-woven in wool in France around 1840. This one-of-a-kind piece showcases an open field medallion across a red palette, and measures 15’0″ x 22’0″.
Aubusson is a celebrated French weaving tradition named for the town in central France, dating to the 17th century. Aubusson carpets are known for their refined, elegant compositions – graceful floral medallions and architectural borders in soft, sophisticated tones.
Its generous, oversized scale makes a statement in a great room, primary suite or open-plan space. Its reds bring warmth and depth, classic with dark woods and leather. Hand-made from natural fibers, it carries the warmth and irregular charm of true handcraft.
