19th Century Pennsylvania Jacquard Coverlet in Floral Design Red, Green, Blue

Mid-19th Century Pennsylvania Jacquard Coverlet with Bold Floral Design
This beautiful antique American coverlet from Pennsylvania, woven in the mid-1800s, features a striking large-scale floral design in vivid red, blue, and green on a soft ivory background. Handwoven on a Jacquard loom, this four-color coverlet showcases alternating rows of flower heads and leafy vines, creating a rhythmic and visually captivating pattern.

A remarkable example of Pennsylvania folk textile tradition, this coverlet brings timeless charm and heritage to any collection.

Vintage Persian Shahsavan Soumak Saddle Blanket in Ivory, Lavender, Yellow, Blue
Located in Barrington, IL
This exquisite Soumak horse blanket from Northwest Persia is more than just a textile—it’s a window into a weaver’s world. Created over a century ago, the blanket features a free-form, expressive design that captures the spirit of its maker and the landscape in which they lived. Every motif, color, and variation reflects a personal and cultural narrative, woven by hand with intention and artistry.
Originally woven for practical use as a horse blanket, saddlebag, or mafrash (bedding bag), this piece exemplifies the transformation of tribal utilitarian objects into timeless works of art. These items once served essential roles in nomadic village life, and today they enrich modern interiors with their depth, texture, and heritage.
A true collector’s textile, this Soumak weaving invites us to imagine the lives of those who created and used it, offering a connection to distant lands and traditions. Whether displayed as wall art, draped over furniture, or thoughtfully layered into an interior space, it brings history, craftsmanship, and storytelling into the home.
Dimensions: 3’ 3” x 4’ 4”
