Description from the seller
Replica of an 18th-century Spanish carpet from Alcaraz with a density of about 120,000 knots per m2. These carpets reproduce designs of the ancient Spanish carpets woven in the provinces of Cuenca and Albacete mainly during the 15th and 16th centuries, famously known throughout Europe at that time, and whose origin is closely linked to the Islamic past of the production regions. The one we present is hand-knotted in Egypt with the finest quality wool and a high density of knots.
