Antique Needlepoint Rug in Gold with Blue Medallion and Florals

About the Item

This antique 9x13 needlepoint rug is a rare late 19th century addition to our classic curations. Handwoven in wool from Portugal circa 1920-1930. Further on the Design: This particular rug is called an Arraiolos rug for the town where the weavers are famed for these rugs. They enjoy a more versatile size than most needlepoints we curate of the style, and a seldom-seen detail therein. The border design lends its vivid floral patterns a particularly gorgeous movement and presence that sits gorgeous underfoot. Gold, grays and both light and dark blues mingle with a variety of rich and refreshing hues alike in this detailed, rustic work. A fabulous interpretation of European style, and a collectible rug for its provenance. Further on the Condition: This handmade antique needlepoint rug further hosts good condition for its age, and is ready for the floor.
