Antique American Folk Art Design Hooked Area Rug, America, Early 20th Century – This quintessential American hooked rug has a charming rustic appearance with modern undertones and a certain abstract flair. The well-defined field is contained by a simple linear border that offsets the vibrant tile pattern. Reminiscent of contemporary stained glass, the poly chromatic field incorporates a host of irregularly shaped pavers that have organic curves and unpredictable rectilinear segments. These quirky motifs feature a vibrant assortment of delicate accent colors and calming neutral hues. The bold selection of monochromatic figures paired with tweedy mottled yarn emphasizes the nubbly shoe peg knots, which are uniquely associated with the style and construction techniques of traditional American hooked rugs.
