Antique Hooked Rug, Country of Origin: America, Circa Date: Early 20th Century – This spectacular antique American hooked rug features a grand lattice work frame with beautifully executed ribbons that are carefully braided together in a stunning under-over pattern. Subtle meandering outlines give the strong border motifs a graceful fluidity reminiscent of luxurious satin ribbons. The chic wattle-weave border is juxtaposed against the dramatic streaked field with its bold visual presence. Delicate neutral colors and intense earth tones emphasize the elegant formality of the regal composition, which has a timeless style and a down-to-earth elegance. These bold patterns and nuanced features collectively represent the authentic American style that is infused into each lovingly crafted antique hooked America rug.
