Italian term or phrase: Tappeto centrale
Hello everyone,

I need help with the translation of the following sentence:

Il pavimento era realizzato con mattonelle tipo Versailles montato con tappeto centrale nei saloni e una cornice perimetrale.

The context is top-level wooden flooring. It would seem that Tappeto is not related to the fabric covering but rather to an installation technique (similar to inlay?) See https://www.domuspetra.it/it/realizzazioni/pavimenti/110-pav...

Thanks a lot!
