Ivory Antique Artistic American Folk Art Hooked Cotton Rug

$8,800.00

Antique American Hooked Rug Hallway Runner Cotton Ivory, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional textile is a prime example of early 20th-century American folk art, rendered in a delicate, hand-hooked technique using cotton fibers. The piece offers a charming, almost watercolor-like aesthetic, characteristic of the finest antique rugs from the period. The foundation of this runner is a luminous, softly aged ivory color, which provides a perfect canvas for the scattered botanical elements. The palette is restrained, featuring subtle pastels—pinks, pale greens, and soft yellows—that suggest a wild meadow or cottage garden, lending the piece an air of quiet sophistication. The composition employs an allover pattern of stylized floral sprigs and leaves, creating a sense of natural movement across the field without a central focus.
