Celebrated for timeless artistry, Story Behind the Art: Portuguese needlepoint rugs often called Arraiolos rugs originate from the town of Arraiolos in Portugal and have been produced since at least the 17th century. Inspired by Persian carpet designs introduced through trade these rugs are created using a distinctive cross-stitch embroidery technique on a woven jute or linen base. Traditionally made from wool they feature geometric or floral motifs in symmetrical patterns often with a central medallion and decorative borders. They became popular for their durability decorative appeal and relatively lightweight construction compared to pile rugs. Over centuries Arraiolos rugs have evolved to incorporate both Moorish and European influences making them a unique fusion of cultural artistry that remains a symbol of Portuguese textile heritage.. The brand continues to uphold its legacy by creating rugs that blend classic weaving traditions with modern elegance.
