Handmade in wool and originating circa 1920-1930, this 2x4 rug is a rare and exciting new curation in Rug & Kilim’s collection of antique hooked rugs.
On the Design:
Admirers of the craft will appreciate this piece as one of the most beautiful rugs we’ve curated from this style, with an equally gorgeous and unique animal pictorial and floral design for this craft. While rare in all rugs, hooked rugs like this one are especially desirable for being one of the styles where animal depictions are celebrated, though each piece remains one of a kind. They also have a delicious texture, almost like a boucle, that’s inherent to the technique.
Connoisseurs will appreciate this among some of the richest, most collectible works of folk art and among the earliest forms of American folk art in our field—an exemplar of folksy charm and art as much as an accent rug, from a distinguished weaving tradition of Americana with vast design applications today.
Condition:
This antique hooked rug has some notable wear, including holes in the field and some fraying in the border—recommended for exclusive wall-hanging use in its current state. Those interested in repairing this piece for an additional fee may enquire for a quote. less
