Story Behind the Art:
Born from 17th-century France’s golden age of design, Savonnerie rugs originated at the illustrious Savonnerie Manufactory (1650–1685), where royal commissions defined European elegance. Over time, the name “Savonnerie” became synonymous with refined French weaving, celebrated for its plush pile, intricate detailing, and regal artistry.
Distinguished by ornate medallions, floral bouquets, and scrolling vines, these rugs were often framed by rich borders in shades of navy, black, or chestnut—a palette favored by the French court. Their groundbreaking use of depth perspective, developed by 17th-century artists, gave designs a striking three-dimensional quality.
Today, artisans in India, China, Iran, and Pakistan continue this legacy, creating exquisite reproductions that honor the symmetrical knotting, lavish texture, and timeless beauty that made Savonnerie rugs icons of luxury and culture.
