About the Item
Radiant Vintage Spanish Cuenca Rug in Golden Tones
Size: 11'8" × 11'8" (355 × 355 cm)
This exceptional vintage Cuenca rug from Spain, dating to the mid-20th century, dazzles with its rich palette and stylized classical design. Woven in a luminous golden yellow field, the rug features ivory arabesques interspersed with crisp green foliate flourishes, reminiscent of stylized acanthus leaves. The contrasting green border, detailed with an abstract botanical scroll motif, frames the composition with elegant definition.
Crafted with meticulous technique, this flat-woven rug balances decorative exuberance with a modernist restraint, making it ideal for both traditional and contemporary interiors. The symmetry and openness of the pattern allow the eye to travel freely across the surface, while the tactile texture of the wool lends warmth and artisanal character.
A testament to the artistic heritage of Spanish textile weaving, this vintage piece is more than a floor covering—it’s a statement of timeless European design sensibility.
A rare piece from the Doris Leslie Blau Collection, this rug exemplifies superior artistry and tradition. Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.

Vintage Spanish Cuenca Rug with Renaissance Palmette Design
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, which has a raised pile with respect to the ivory background, is distinguished by an infinite repeat of curvilinear palmettes as seen on 15th-16th century Spanish Alcaraz carpets.
