About the Item
An American specialty, rag rugs are flat-woven with sections of rags from worn out clothing or furnishings worked in a horizontal stripe design. This particularly large example was made in three vertical sections and then joined by sewing. Black, yellow, denim blue, eggshell and orange are among the major colors. Rag rugs are perfect for American folk. This example is in top condition.
This Mid-20th Century American rag rug is a wonderful example of Americana textile tradition, woven circa 1950. Crafted from recycled fabrics, it features a lively array of horizontal stripes in muted tones of indigo, ivory, red, and orange, creating a casual yet visually dynamic composition. Rag rugs were highly valued for their resourcefulness and charm, often made in rural households from available cloth remnants, each piece telling a story of everyday life.
With its bold striping and versatile palette, this rug is perfect for adding character to a country home, rustic loft, or modern eclectic space. Its flatwoven construction makes it highly durable and suitable for both decorative and practical use.
