In the 18th and 19th centuries, some rug workshops removed abstract patterns, depicting subjects taken from classical prose and poetry instead.
Instead, scenes of country life, hunting and mythical subjects were woven in silk and wool.
This exquisite rug was drawn directly from a Louis XIX Gobelin tapestry from the series Les sujets de la Fable, following Raphael's drawings.
This exceptionally dignified and outstanding silk work depicts a mythological scene with Bacchus and Ariadne and would make a statement in any chateau.
Authentic vintage and antique Chinese rugs are hand-knotted with silk and wool. Each one is an exceptional work of art and one of a kind.
Pictures are taken in natural light to portray the most realistic colours possible. Due to these rugs' handmade and preloved nature, slight imperfections and flaws are not defects.
Our rugs are professionally restored, and the fringes secured, ensuring many more years of life. In addition, we advise using a rug pad with a grip back to keep your rug in position and to smooth out any wrinkles from shipping. Using a rug pad will also safeguard your carpet from deterioration and, therefore, extend the life of your rug.
Our rugs are professionally cleaned.
