Antique Spanish Carpet, Circa Date: 1920’s This elegant antique Spanish rug is the proud heir of a long tradition of rug weaving in the Iberian Peninsula reaching back to the late Middle Ages. Its circular medallion format goes back to Timurid models introduced to Islamic Spain in the fifteenth century. Yet it is rendered with a rich wreath-like floral detail and soft, golden coloration that are distinctly Spanish or European. Subtle touches of red ad a hint of excitement amidst the classic restraint.
