Beautiful Floral Antique American Hooked Rug, Country Of origin: America, Circa date: 1900 – This exquisite American hooked rug was developed in the United States. Hooked rugs are a traditional part of American art, and the style itself first arose in England before it made it to the colonies. Strong floral and leaf motifs are often present throughout these antique rug masterpieces, and it is not uncommon for many arrangement to dominate the space without the use of excessive patterning or bordering. This floral antique American Hooked rug is a classical example of such an effect, where the neutral background allows the flowers at the foreground to fade into visibility, almost as if rising from the mist to dazzle the viewer’s vision.
