A striking antique ivory and beige Aubusson, hand-woven in wool in France around 1880. This one-of-a-kind piece showcases a floral composition across an ivory and beige palette, and measures 9'7" x 13'4". 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. The ivory palette is endlessly versatile, lightening and enlarging a room. Hand-made from natural fibers, it carries the warmth and irregular charm of true handcraft.
