Antique Early 20th Century American Geometric Floral Folk Art Design Small Hooked Rug

This early 20th-century American Hooked rug is a charming and authentic piece of Folk Art, representing the quintessential domestic craftsmanship of rural New England or the Canadian Maritimes. Unlike the formal, workshop produced Persian rugs, the American folk art rugs were unique "storytelling" textiles, often created by hand using strips of recycled wool and burlap. This small-format specimen showcases a harmonious blend of Geometric and Floral design, reflecting the transition from traditional patterns to more organic, individualistic expressions of beauty. The composition is centered upon a balanced and rhythmic Geometric-Floral layout. The design typically features a central botanical motif—such as a stylized blossom or a simple bouquet—framed by a disciplined geometric border or a series of concentric diamond shapes.
