Cuenca (textile style) (<Spanish and North African Islamic styles and periods>, <Islamic World dynastic styles and periods>, ... Styles and Periods (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Style of textiles handwoven at the city of Cuenca, Spain (located between Madrid and Valencia), especially floor coverings from the 17th and 18th centuries. Carpets are generally coarser and heavier bodied than Alcaraz carpets, with a foundation of bast fibre. In later examples the symmetrical knot may be used instead of the Spanish knot, which encircles only a single warp. Usually the color range is limited and muddy, as if several hues had proved fugitive; later rugs may show bold coloring. A good red dye did not appear in these rugs until the 18th century, when a bright cherry red was sometimes used.

Additional Notes: |
|
| Chinese (traditional) ..... 用以表示來自西班牙昆卡市（Cuenca，位於馬德里與瓦倫西瓦之間）的手工紡織品風格，尤指其盛行於十七至十八世紀的地毯。昆卡風格的地毯是利用韌皮纖維加以編織而成，通常比阿爾卡拉斯（Alcaraz）的地毯要來得粗糙厚重。爾後所製作的地毯則是以對稱的打結法來取代西班牙結；對稱打結法的纏繞次數只有一次。地毯的顏色範圍通常有限，而且顏色渾濁，看似某些色調容易褪色。後期所製作的地毯則是用色大膽；但是一直到十八世紀才看得到染上紅色的地毯；當時偶爾可見地毯運用明亮的櫻桃紅。 |
