A striking vintage green Savonnerie, hand-knotted in wool in France around 1980. This one-of-a-kind piece showcases an open field medallion across a green palette, and measures 11’0″ x 18’0″.
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-knotted from durable wool, it is made to be lived with and handed down.
