Mythical Animals Field – Spanish Hand-Knotted Wool Rug - 370 Cm X 252 Cm

Description
This very large hand-knotted Spanish wool rug presents a striking allover field of repeating heraldic animal motifs arranged within an interlocking geometric lattice, executed with exceptional clarity and balance. The palette combines soft mineral blues, warm terracotta reds, muted olive greens, and natural ivory tones, creating a surface that feels both richly decorative and harmoniously restrained. The dense pile and precise knotting give the motifs a sculptural presence, while subtle abrash variations lend depth and age to the composition. The design draws on historic Iberian textile traditions, where symbolic animals and geometric frameworks were used to convey strength, order, and continuity. A bold red border anchors the composition, framing the patterned field with rhythm and visual weight. The overall effect is architectural and timeless, suited to large spaces where scale and pattern can be fully appreciated, offering both visual impact and material substance.
