About the Item

When many people think of carpets, what comes to mind are the pile rugs and traditional kilims of the middle east. Kilims are similar to a tapestry weaving and have a flat weave, as opposed to a soft, plush raised pile. However, these are not the only two methods used to create beautiful carpets. Needlepoint is another traditional craft that has a special place in the historical traditions of carpet weaving. Portuguese needlepoint rugs are a special class of carpets that have a unique history, particularly in the village of Arraiolos. Let’s explore the story behind these beautiful carpets.
