Antique Aubusson Room Size Wool Ivory Rug, Circa Date: 1880s. This exquisite French tapestry-woven carpet exemplifies the delicate elegance inherent in Aubusson rugs of the late 19th century. Its construction and palette reflect the refined tastes of the period, favoring soft wool textures over heavy pile. The expansive central field is rendered in a luminous ivory tone, providing a perfect counterpoint to the vibrant rose-hued border. At the heart of the design rests an elaborate medallion framing a magnificent bouquet of naturalistic roses, characteristic of the Rococo revival style. Framed by scrolling cartouches and elegant garlands, the composition is a masterful display of floral patterns and neoclassical symmetry. Given its generous proportions, this piece is classified as a desirable room size rug, ideal for defining a formal salon or grand dining area.
