Antique American hooked rugs rarely attain the primitive power and honesty of this charming runner rug example.

A Magnificent and Highly Decorative Floral Earth Tone Colored Antique American Hooked Runner Rug, Country of Origin: America, Circa date: Early 20th CenturyAntique American hooked rugs are prized for their rustic charm, but rarely do they attain the primitive power and honesty of this charming antique American Hooked runner rug. The field is little more than a variegated study in brown with subtle highlights in various other colors. But here the balance between rich color and the nubby, tactile texture of the fibers is pure perfection. The borders of this antique runner rug are simple bands of contrasting tan with series of multi-colored flowers, adding a touch of folksy decor along side the chromatic expressionism of the field.
