About the Item

Handmade in wool and originating from Germany circa 1920-1930, this 11x14 antique hooked rug is an exceptional find of the celebrated Tetex lineage—highlighting the American interpretation of 17th century Persian carpet traditions. On the Design: Admirers of the craft will enjoy this rug’s marriage of a Persian pattern of European sensibility—another collectible trait of Tetex carpets, known for their diverse, eclectic works, exemplified in this particular rug’s employ of an Oriental design through the lens of so many German design sensibilities. The coral red field houses a dense arrangement of varied geometric and floral medallions that follow traditional Persian spatial organization—each element maintaining individual identity while contributing to overall harmony. The unusual choice of colors, as well as the particular arrangement of them, give this piece a more fabulous sense of movement for such a rustic, old-world pattern. The design vocabulary employs authentic Persian motifs—rosettes, angular palmettes, cruciform medallions, and geometric star formations—arranged in asymmetrical distribution that honors classical Persian principles. It’s a true connoisseur’s rug, both a remarkable example of the hooked rug tradition and equally versatile in its small size offering such vast design applications today. Condition: This antique Tetex hooked rug further enjoys an exceptional condition for its age and origin.
