Description from the seller

Excellent heavy white quilt, woven in linen and originating from Almalaguês. The weaving of Almalaguês is a unique expression of Portuguese cultural richness, originating from this parish near Coimbra. It is made on a manual loom and assembled in two parts because the old looms were small. Valued for its antiquity, unique beauty, and quality. It is extremely elegant and refined, as shown in the photos. The photos also display the meticulous work of the antique manual loom on this beautiful quilt, which is in excellent condition. It features fringes at the edges and has a delicate, perfect embossed pattern.
Measurements: 245 cm x 145 cm.
It will be well packaged and sent with tracking.
