Item Details

Contemporary Aubusson Carpet
4.28 x 3.05 m


The town of Aubusson has long since been famous for the high quality of its textiles, its reputation stretching back as far as the 14th Century, as a centre of Medieval tapestry weaving. In the 17th Century, its workshops were given ‘Royal Appointment’ status, commissioned to produce elaborate carpets for the French Court, well-known for their tight weaves and lustrous wool.


This piece is a contemporary recreation of these Aubusson pieces, hand-woven according to the same techniques, with designs characteristic of earlier 18th Century Savonnerie works, in tones of ivory, sage green, and red, all in natural vegetable-dyed colours.


A sophisticated example to complement a variety of settings.
