Antique Oversized Yellow Savonnerie Austrian Knotted Rug, Country of Origin: Austria, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional floor covering is a magnificent example of the European court aesthetic, executed in the grand Savonnerie style. While the design pays homage to the 18th-century French tradition, its precise knotting and distinctive color application confirm its status as a high-quality piece of early 20th-century craftsmanship. The rug's impressive scale is defined by its oversized format, making it ideal for a formal drawing-room or a grand hall. The central field is dominated by a mesmerizing, subtly textured background rendered in a rich yellow palette. This expansive color choice provides a sophisticated, luminous foundation, allowing the sparse, medallion-like motifs to float elegantly within the space.
