Story Behind the Art: French needlepoint rugs were originally produced in the 17th–18th century within the legendary Aubusson and Savonnerie ateliers, where they served as sophisticated floor art in royal and aristocratic settings. Featuring floral medallions, garland motifs, scrollwork, and soft European colorways, these rugs were hand-crafted using petit point and gros point embroidery. Their strong classical influences and intricate workmanship made them prized objects of décor. In the late 20th century, China revived the tradition by crafting hand-stitched needlepoints in wool on cotton canvas, offering collectors high-quality, historically inspired designs at more accessible price levels.
