Antique American Multicolor 1900s Quilt: a quilt made in the United States, 64 x 78 inches (5'4" x 6'6"). 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. This exceptional textile piece, though labeled a quilt, captures the essence of early 20th-century American needlework and design. The palette is remarkably soft yet vibrant, featuring muted shades of coral, lavender, sage green, and pale blush. This harmonious combination moves beyond typical primary colors, offering a refined multicolor jewel tone effect that speaks to the transitional tastes of the period.
