Vintage Spanish Bold Botanic Handmade Wool Rug BB0480 13'7" × 25'9" $95,000

$95,000

An early 20th century Spanish rug, the geometric compartmental design matched by large scale rosettes on a deep red and green field with a lighter green geometric border.

Retaining the idiosyncratic structure of the Spanish knot, early Hispano-Moresque antique rug weavers employed the method of a single-warp knot in their carpets. The original bright red and blue colorations of these antique rugs for sale have faded over time into the muted gold and blue tones now associated with antique Spanish carpets. Neoclassical and Turkish influenced pieces were made in the workshops of Quenca. In 1712 Charles III founded the Real Fabrica de Tapices Manufactory in Madrid and produced European style carpets in NYC to compete with the sophisticated French workshops of Aubusson and Savonnerie.
