Spanish carpet of the first half of the twentieth... Lot 130

Spanish carpet of the first half of the twentieth century. Hand knotted wool. Needs restoration. It has small cuts. Measurements: 395 x 302 cm. Generously sized rug made of hand-knotted wool. It presents a maroon field with floral decoration presided by a central rosette ornamented with festoons and flanked by horns of abundance or cornucopias arranged in perfect symmetry. A vegetal fretwork based on garlands forms the first band of the border, followed by two more bands, the outer one organized with a combination of geometric forms and floral corollas, so that each of the latter is housed in a tesserae. Ocher, pink, brown and red tones dominate.
