About the Item

Antique American hooked rug, size: 3'0" x 4'0". his exceptional piece represents the finest folk art tradition within the genre of antique rugs. Hooked rugs, often crafted from repurposed materials, possess a tactile, dimensional quality distinct from woven textiles, making them highly desirable examples of domestic artistry. The central composition features a charming, stylized bouquet of red and green flora set against a muted beige ground. The design utilizes an allover rugs aesthetic, where the repeating elements fill the field, though here they are organized around a strong central axis, lending the piece a balanced symmetry characteristic of late 19th-century domestic textile arts. Framing the delicate central spray are four robust, scrolling foliate elements executed in contrasting shades of tan and deep brown. This bold framing device anchors the composition, highlighting the creative vitality inherent in the textile production of the American USA Rugs tradition during the Gilded Age. Due to its dimensions, this rug functions perfectly as a decorative accent, ideal for entryways or beside a hearth. These small scatter size rugs are prized for their ability to introduce historical texture and a vibrant, handcrafted narrative into contemporary interiors, offering a unique glimpse into 19th-century American home life.
