Antique American Hooked America Geometric Knotted Rug, Country of Origin: American USA Rugs, Circa Date: 1880s. This exceptional piece offers a rare glimpse into late 19th-century domestic textile artistry. Unlike the imported Oriental carpets popular at the time, this rug represents a distinctly American folk tradition, focusing on robust construction and bold, repetitive geometry. It is a striking example among our collection of antique rugs. The design features a compelling all-over repeat of interlocking ovals, creating a dynamic lattice effect across the field. The use of varied vertical striping within the dark sections contrasts sharply with the plain, lighter ovals, suggesting a sophisticated use of texture and repurposed materials typical of the era.
