About the Item

This 8x8 Antique Aubusson square rug is an elegant addition to Rug & Kilim’s European collection, a refined example of the French flatweave style, handwoven in wool and originating from France circa 1830-70. On the Design: This piece features a rhythmic, grid-based composition that departs from the more common central-medallion Aubusson style in favor of an elegant all-over repeating pattern. At its heart are circular medallions enclosing delicate rose bouquets, framed by laurel-leaf wreaths and dainty white florets. These floral centers are punctuated by elongated blue and ivory lozenges featuring a stylized "honeycomb" or scale-like internal pattern, adding a structured, architectural counterpoint to the organic botanical elements. The palette is strikingly warm and grounded, utilizing a rich chocolate-brown field that makes the polychromatic accents of soft rose, muted gold, and cornflower blue, vibrantly pop. The interplay of these hues reflects the transition of French decorative arts through the mid-19th century, blending 18th-century romanticism with a structured, almost Neo-Classical symmetry. The result is a decorative tapestry-style rug that feels both historic and remarkably adaptable to contemporary settings. Condition: This Antique Aubusson square rug is in great condition for its age and origin.
