AI-assisted summary
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.
Seller's Story
Specialising in the trade of high-quality, hand-knotted oriental rugs. Since its inception, the company has set itself the goal of producing hand-knotted oriental rugs of the highest quality, selecting each rug one by one in order to offer the customer the best possible selection. Thus, the Hamid firm offers a wide range of rugs in different designs, both traditional and newly created, the result of a permanent study of colour and quality, creating exclusive collections.
The carpet is a handcrafted product, made by people with a lot of experience. The work and human closeness with the weavers and producers have always been of vital importance to the firm.
