The designs in Safavieh’s Castilian rug collection celebrate the decorative arts of Spain, from ceramic tiles to textiles. Hand-knotted in India, Castilian rugs combine the motifs of Persia and Western Europe, using the Persian Senneh knot for enduring beauty. High quality wool is specially prepared and space dyed to impart an antique look. The wool is washed before and after weaving, and we sheer the pile of our Castilian rugs very low for a vintage look.
