About the Item

Antique American hooked rug, size: 2'0" x 3'3". This charming and highly collectible textile represents the enduring folk art tradition of the early 20th century. Its dimensions place it perfectly within the category of a small scatter size rug, ideal for adding a focal point of color and narrative interest to a small space. The central field features a whimsical, figural depiction of three anthropomorphic pigs, rendered in a naive, expressive style typical of the period's domestic craftwork. The palette utilizes saturated hues—rich blues, reds, and earthy tones—creating a vibrant, yet balanced multicolor jewel-tone presentation that captures the eye. Executed in the robust, looped wool technique characteristic of its origin, this piece exemplifies the unique texture and durability inherent in the American hooked rug tradition. These textiles were often created domestically, reflecting personal stories or popular cultural references, making each surviving example a unique snapshot of American textile history. While the primary motif is narrative, the composition relies on strong linear borders and compartmentalization, giving the overall design a defined, almost geometric rugs structure. This exceptional piece of Americana is a fine addition to any collection of period folk art and is representative of the high-quality antique rugs curated by our gallery.
