10'1 x 14'1 Hand-Knotted Sino-French Savonnerie Style Room-Sized Rug

Item Details

This hand-knotted Sino-French area rug is a grand interpretation of the classical Savonnerie style originally developed for the French royal palaces. The composition is centered by a sunburst floral medallion set within a cream-ground cartouche, which is further framed by monumental scrolling acanthus leaves in a soft palette of rose, gold, and celadon. The outer corners of the field transition into a rich crimson red, providing a dramatic backdrop for the sprawling baroque ornamentation. A sophisticated laurel leaf border, rendered in tonal greens and tans, encloses the field, punctuated by architectural corner blocks. Woven with a thick, dense wool pile, this room-sized rug combines the opulent aesthetic of European neoclassical design with the precise technical execution of modern Chinese master weavers, making it an ideal anchor for formal dining or drawing rooms.
