Vintage Spanish Cuenca Rug with Renaissance Wreath Pattern
Located in Milan, IT
The court workshop called 'Real Fabrica de Tapices' has been active in Madrid since the 17th century, supplying handmade carpets woven with Turkish (symmetrical) knots to both the court as well as for export.
Throughout the 20th century their carpets were either woven with French Savonnerie patterns or, as in this case, with designs taken from the Spanish Renaissance weaving tradition. These carpets are known in the trade with the term of 'Cuenca,' which is the city in southern Spain where they were originally woven in the 15th-17th centuries. Here the pattern is distinguished by an infinite repeat of floral wreaths as seen on Spanish Alcaraz carpets...

Antique Persian Rust Green Tabriz Silk Rug with Birds and Animals, circa 1940s
Located in New York, NY
Tabriz is Iran's second oldest city, and was the earliest capital of the Safavid dynasty. The city has been the foremost Persian rug production town since the 15th Century and the center of the world's weaving community since the 1800s. Tabriz rug weavers are among the most skilled producers of quality rugs with the highest technical standards and the most varied repertoire. It is also worth mentioning that Tabriz rugs are the most traded rugs in the world. The designs are the most diverse designs of Persian carpets, and weavers used many different motifs, from Classic medallion to all-over patterns, in every color imaginable, from brilliant rich tones to soft pastels. Tabriz rugs are of great interest to interior designers who look for fine decorative Persian rugs and carpets of the highest value.
This is a pristine and finely woven antique Persian Tabriz silk carpet with birds...
