Savonnerie

The Galerie Boccara has an important collection of antique French rugs from the 18th to the 20th century. This prestigious collection has been created over the years by Didier Marien. It reflects a history and a lifestyle where refinement is combined with an incredible attention to detail. All the carpets are in exceptional condition and mostly come from private collections. The Savonnerie and Aubusson rugs bring a unique touch and reflect a taste that marked the 18th century.

The Savonnerie carpets played an important role in the history of French furniture.

The Savonnerie was the first royal carpet factory founded in France. It takes its name from an old soap factory located in Chaillot.

In the 17th century, Colbert reorganised the Savonnerie by placing it, as with the Gobelins, under the artistic direction of Charles Le Brun.

The soap factory experienced a period of extraordinary activity during which its production, exclusively reserved for kings, was used to furnish royal residences and as diplomatic gifts.
