In the past, shepherds in Portugal's rural Alentejo region would adorn themselves with these pure wool "mantas" (blankets) to protect themselves from the cold.
Today, while these "mantas" can still be used as blankets, they are also used as bed throws, wall hangings and graphic, contemporary rugs.
Each "manta" is unique, woven entirely by hand on 19th-century looms. Their traditional motifs and vibrant colors capture the very soul of the Alentejo region.
NB: To use your manta as a rug, just as for a "kilim", we advise you to lay a non-slip fabric underneath, so your rug won't move a hair. The colors and dimensions of our mantas can also be customized. Please do not hesitate to contact us directly.
