A striking antique green Savonnerie, hand-woven in wool in France around 1820. This one-of-a-kind piece showcases a floral composition across a green palette, and measures 15'0" x 18'4". Savonnerie is the grand French knotted-pile tradition, historically associated with royal manufactories. Savonnerie carpets are famed for their plush pile and stately, formal designs of scrolling florals and central medallions. Its generous, oversized scale makes a statement in a great room, primary suite or open-plan space. The greens bring a natural, calming note that pairs well with creams, terracotta and rattan. Hand-made from natural fibers, it carries the warmth and irregular charm of true handcraft.
