Story Behind the Art: Developed in France during the 17th–18th centuries, French needlepoint rugs became hallmarks of aristocratic refinement. Aubusson and Savonnerie workshops perfected floral medallions, scrollwork, and garland motifs stitched in petit and gros point techniques.
Their presence in royal salons cemented their status as symbols of cultivated luxury.
By the late 1900s, China emerged as a major producer of French-style needlepoint rugs. Using wool on cotton canvas, artisans replicated antique Aubusson and Savonnerie patterns for global markets. These rugs now serve as accessible yet authentic expressions of European decorative heritage in American homes.
