A striking antique earth-toned Aubusson, hand-woven in wool in France around 1850. This one-of-a-kind piece showcases an open field medallion across an earth-toned palette, and measures 8'10" x 10'10". Aubusson is a celebrated French weaving tradition named for the town in central France, dating to the 18th century. Aubusson carpets are known for their refined, elegant compositions - graceful floral medallions and architectural borders in soft, sophisticated tones. At a true room size it will anchor a living or dining room, framing a seating group or sitting comfortably under a dining table. Its earth tones ground a space and pair naturally with greenery and wood. Hand-made from natural fibers, it carries the warmth and irregular charm of true handcraft.
