Antique American 1920s Geometric Medallion Square Quilt: a quilt made in the United States, 87 x 96 inches (7’3″ x 8′). It is pieced from fabric and quilted through to a backing, not knotted or woven like a rug. Quilts like this were made as bed coverings; today they are hung as textile art or used as a throw or bed topper. Because it is a textile, we do not recommend it for use on the floor.
Its central star motif, executed with sharp, angular precision, firmly places it within the category of geometric textiles.
The visual impact of this quilt is defined by its arresting palette of brilliant turquoise, deep navy, sunny yellow, and rich crimson. This deliberate use of high-contrast hues creates a dynamic, almost kinetic energy across the surface, characteristic of the most desirable multicolor jewel tones found in period textiles.
This particular medallion quilt offers a rare opportunity to acquire a textile that is both historically significant and visually spectacular, providing a powerful focal point for any discerning collection.
Condition: Good.
