Story Behind the Art: The magnificent Savonnerie rugs of France remain symbols of European grandeur and artistic discipline. Originating in the 17th-century Savonnerie Manufactory near Paris, these hand-knotted French wool carpets once adorned royal palaces and stately salons. Their designs feature opulent medallions, baroque scrolls, and floral garlands set against deep blue, ebony, or chocolate grounds enriched by intricate gilded borders. What makes Aubusson Savonnerie rugs truly distinctive is their three-dimensional “depth-perspective” technique, invented by 17th-century weavers to create sculptural realism. With symmetrical knots, vivid pigments, and luxurious texture, they remain timeless icons of elegance—re-created today in India, Pakistan, and China for connoisseurs who seek the romance of classic French design within modern settings.
