Antique Spanish Cuenca Carpet

About the Item

From Cuenca, this single warp knot carpet has a tawny ground with a twisted strapwork pattern defining octogramme and quatrefoil reserves enclosing rosettes and flowing stars. The connected oval cartouche border is on the same tawny ground tone and has an internal volute and flower pattern in each panel. Accent tones include goldenrod and ivory in the narrow and fairly light, but effective, palette. The overall style is 19th century and has no reference to more classical Spanish carpets.

    Located in Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire
    This exquisite early-twentieth-century carpet was produced in Alcaraz, Spain. This carpet is an excellent example of the formal mandate to develop a distinctively Spanish style of artwork. It is an allover design that is in cream and green. The pink border sets the carpet off. Alcaraz is a region in Southern Castile and is thought to be one of the first centres to produce these new designs.
