Symphony of Granada – Vintage Spanish Masterwork in Wool Rug

A radiant testament to Iberian artistry, Symphony of Granada is a grand-scale, handmade vintage Spanish rug measuring an impressive 455 x 367 cm. It exudes both visual richness and historical resonance, likely woven in the mid-20th century during a revival of traditional Spanish textile craftsmanship.

The central field of the rug is a kaleidoscope of color and movement—lavish paisleys, diamond latticework, and floral rosettes coalesce in a rhythmic interplay. Dominated by warm amber, saffron, and crimson hues, the palette is gently cooled by celadon blues and lavender purples that infuse the surface with depth and vitality. The rug's symmetrical patterning evokes the harmonious balance found in Andalusian tilework and Moorish gardens, while its slightly faded patina adds to its poetic charm and authenticity.

Surrounding the central motif, intricate borders overflow with stylized blossoms and geometric arabesques, framed by multiple guard stripes that provide a sense of architectural containment—akin to the courtyards and colonnades of Alhambra.

Despite its age, the rug remains in good condition, with its wool pile retaining a soft, worn elegance that only decades of gentle use can produce. This piece functions as both a floor covering and a monumental artwork—ideal for collectors of fine textiles, design historians, or any space deserving a touch of old-world majesty.
