This 17th-century Savonnerie carpet, woven in France, is a stunning example of the intricate floral patterns and rich colors characteristic of this style. The carpet's central motif features a vase overflowing with flowers, surrounded by a symmetrical arrangement of blossoms. Its elaborate border showcases a repeating design of stylized flowers and leaves, creating a harmonious sense of unity. The exquisite craftsmanship and elaborate imagery exemplify the high standards of the Savonnerie Manufactory, a renowned workshop known for its high-quality carpets and tapestries.
