Description
A historical map of the province of Valencia, dated 1901. The map includes intricate details such as topographical features, with mountain ranges and river systems prominently marked. The province's boundaries are clearly outlined, and various types of roads and railways are indicated, suggesting the map's usefulness for navigation and understanding the region's geography during the early 20th century.
The map includes a legend or "signos convencionales," which explains the symbols used to represent cities, towns (pueblos), administrative boundaries (límite de provincia), railways (ferrocarril en explotación and en construcción for operational and under-construction railways respectively), roads (carreteras), and telegraph lines (telégrafo), among others.
Additionally, the map is adorned with the coat of arms of Valencia, highlighting regional pride and identity. The crest, along with the cartographic style, suggests an official or governmental source for the map.
The province of Valencia is located along the Mediterranean coast, which is evident from the map's orientation. Valencia is known for its fertile lands, which benefit from the rivers such as the Turia and Júcar, and for its rich history and cultural heritage. The map would be particularly useful for historians, geographers, and others interested in the historical landscape and infrastructure development of Valencia at the turn of the 20th century.
The province of Valencia, located on the eastern coast of Spain, is part of the autonomous community of the Valencian Community. It is bordered by the provinces of Castellón to the north, Teruel to the west, Cuenca and Albacete to the southwest, Alicante to the south, and the Mediterranean Sea to the east. The capital of the province is the city of Valencia, which is also the third-largest city in Spain.
Valencia is known for its rich history, culture, and economic dynamism. It is famous for its vibrant festivals, including the internationally renowned Falles (Las Fallas), which features the creation and destruction of ninots (large wooden, cardboard, or plaster statues). The region is also famous for its traditional dish, paella, which has become a symbol of Valencian and Spanish cuisine worldwide.
The province has a diverse geography, ranging from the sandy beaches along the coast to the rugged terrain and mountain ranges inland. It is also home to the Albufera Natural Park, a significant wetland reserve south of the city of Valencia. The economy is varied, with strong sectors in agriculture (particularly citrus fruits), industry, tourism, and services.
In terms of infrastructure, the map would show a network of roads and railways connecting the province's various towns and cities, including an extensive system of smaller roads and paths serving the agricultural areas. The map could also indicate areas of particular historical interest, such as Roman ruins or medieval castles, as well as the locations of rivers, mountain ranges, and other natural features.

Cancellations and Returns
Last updated: 24th March 2025
We want everybody’s Vinterior experience to be seamless, so both buyers and sellers can fall in love with pre-loved. We designed our Terms of sale to treat everybody fairly.
However, sometimes things don’t go exactly to plan, and you may need to cancel or return an order.
To prevent this, we encourage you to check listings, photos and descriptions carefully before you buy. If you aren’t sure about a piece’s condition, size, provenance or shipping, just ask; click Contact seller to get in touch. Always contact your seller first if you have any queries, at any point in your purchase.
Our buyers receive the same protection when buying from all our sellers, both professional and verified.
Can I cancel an order?
There are many reasons why you might need to cancel an order, and you'll often be entitled to a refund. To cancel an order, click Create cancellation on the order page.
If you cancel your order before it has been dispatched, you will receive a full refund - including delivery costs. However, if your item has been shipped, delivery costs will not be included in your refund.
Please note: orders of bespoke, personalised or made-to-order pieces cannot be cancelled.
Can I return an order?
We understand that sometimes a piece isn’t the perfect fit. So if you no longer want your order, our returns process will ensure it finds a new home fast.
The Vinterior Guarantee included with your purchase entitles you to 14-day returns - allowing you to return any item within 14 days of the delivery date (except in specific circumstances, detailed below).
You can return your order if...
It isn't what you expected
If what arrives isn’t what you ordered, you can open a return. Just send us some photo evidence that the listing was inaccurate, misleading or misrepresented your purchased piece, and you’ll receive a refund.
You change your mind
If you don’t feel a piece is right for your space, you can return it. Once you request a change of mind return, you’ll be responsible for shipping the piece back to your seller as soon as possible. Delivery costs are non-refundable.
It's damaged in transit
In the rare event that an item arrives damaged or defective, you have a full 30 days from the date of delivery to return it for a full refund.
If your purchase arrives broken, always let us know. If Proovia delivered the piece, we can raise an insurance claim on the seller’s behalf. Or, the seller can raise a claim with their chosen courier.
What can't I return?
Just as there are some orders you can’t cancel, there are some you cant return, too. Personalised, bespoke or made-to-order pieces are non-returnable, and non-refundable. Sellers may also reject your return if the item has been altered in any way.
Please note: pieces on our site are pre-loved, not new. They may show some wear and tear; this is not sufficient grounds for a refund, unless the seller has misrepresented the item’s condition.
Lastly, neither Vinterior nor our sellers are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
I'm eligible for a return. Now what?
To initiate a return, log into your Vinterior account, then go to the relevant order page and click Create a return. In the return request, be sure to include all the details: the reason for your return, an in-depth description, and photos of any issues or damage.
How will I receive my refund?
Once the seller confirms they’ve received the item (in the same condition it was sent), we will send your refund to your original payment method.
All items are inspected on return. If the seller receives the return with damage they don’t recognise, we will not be able to process your refund and the seller may need to send the piece back to you. You will be required to cover these delivery costs.
