About the Item

This 15x25 antique needlepoint rug is an exceptional discovery from the celebrated Arraiolos weaving tradition, among the latest additions to Rug & Kilim’s European rug collection—a rare oversized rug for its kind, handmade in wool and originating from the titular region of Portugal, circa 1900-1910. Admirers of the craft will know Arraiolos needlepoint rugs as some of the most sought-after in our trade—an exceptional class of textiles, primarily made by women weavers of the town whose craft became so reputed many came to call this embroidered needlepoint style “the Arraiolos stitch.” This palace rug enjoys a creamy beige and gold colorway, which underscores the quintessential “Seteais” design, referring to its grid-like series of squares with cascading repeats of geometric-floral crests. Keen eyes will further admire accents ranging from a rich mocha brown to bright white, among many fine details in the beauties that make this piece such an exemplar of its class. It’s an elegant turn-of-the-century curation like few of its kind, and even fewer considering both its spacious large size and the execution of its quality in that scale—a treasure for any designer and connoisseur. Condition: This oversized antique Arraiolos needlepoint rug and palace rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin.
