78359 Vintage French Savonnerie Style Rug Inspired by Louis XIV, 08'05 x 11'07.
No shrinking violets here. With its magnificently elaborate details and decadent beauty, this vintage French Savonnerie style rug is a captivating vision of woven beauty. Characterized by predominantly French influence with its ornate florals, the overall design aesthetic draws inspiration from Louis XIV. The ornate floral pattern is set against a black backdrop creating a beautiful juxtaposition between the intricate rose bouquets, winding arrangements of garnished foliage, and rinceaux. Resplendent acanthus scrollwork and trompe l'oeil filigree extend from each corner. The embellishments alone are sufficiently mesmerizing, but the use of color is extraordinary. The colors join to create a truly compelling dance, and inaudibly speak with a timeless voice that is characterized by sensual decadence, as well as by stately action. All facets of this piece collectively entwine to form the striking and grand charm of a textile that is worthy to depict the tender, emotive, and vibrant details of humans and histories, no longer known.
