Antique American RugsAntique American Hooked Rug, America, early 20th century – Irregular circles in green, blue, maroon, red, and burnt orange hover balloon-like against an abrashed sage green ground. Though sprung from the background of American folk art tradition, this piece has a remarkably modern feeling, almost reminiscent of a Rothko or a Miro. It could easily lend itself to the most contemporary decor despite its nubby, homespun texture.
