Story Behind the Art: Created in 17th–18th century France for elite interiors, French needlepoint rugs represent the height of classical European textile artistry. Produced in the iconic Aubusson and Savonnerie workshops, these rugs feature medallions, garlands, scrolls, and pastel palettes stitched using petit and gros point embroidery. Their refined detailing made them cherished elements in palaces and châteaux. As demand grew in the modern era, Chinese artisans mastered the centuries-old embroidery techniques, producing hand-stitched wool needlepoints that mirror the elegance of antique French originals while offering improved accessibility to collectors and luxury-decor enthusiasts.
