Antique Wool & Cotton Ivory Beige Cream White Hooked - Loop Pile Rug, Circa Date: 1880s. This exceptional piece of Americana represents the height of the decorative hooked rug tradition, utilizing both wool and cotton fibers to achieve its unique texture. As a genuine example of antique rugs, its construction reflects the domestic artistry prevalent in the late 19th century. The field is rendered in a striated, luminous tone, dominated by soft ivory beige cream white hues that provide a perfect canvas for the vibrant floral elements. This light ground is framed by a dramatic, dark border featuring oversized, stylized acanthus scrolls executed in deep magenta, teal, and navy blue, creating a powerful contrast that defines the rug's perimeter.
