Spanish Vintage Floral Soft Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug BB6963 8'10" × 11'4" $8,000

This vintage Spanish hand-knotted wool rug, circa 1940, reflects Iberian weaving traditions through a restrained, Oushak-influenced decorative language. Its casual composition feels both collected and calm, making it especially appealing for layered interiors.

A soft beige field provides a luminous backdrop for a faded central medallion and scattered botanical ornaments, including stylized palmettes, vine curls, and small floral forms. The drawing is intentionally relaxed, with low-contrast outlines in dusty rose, muted gold, terracotta, and pale blue that give the surface a gentle, weathered elegance. Rather than a rigid formal layout, the design favors open spacing and subtle movement.

A quiet border of repeating floral and cartouche-like details frames the composition and adds definition without heaviness. Woven in wool, the rug has the warmth and softness associated with vintage hand-knotting, while its mellow palette allows it to sit easily beneath both contemporary seating arrangements and more traditional furnishings. It brings pattern, history, and understated color to a room without overpowering it.

Curated by Doris Leslie Blau, this vintage rug represents the enduring beauty and craftsmanship that have defined the gallery since its establishment in 1965.
