On the Design:

Admirers of the craft will note this piece is a special find among some of the most collectible rag rugs and the earliest forms of American folk art in our field—exemplary of the hooking process in the folksy, rustic charm and boho chic beauty it yields. This particular design enjoys particularly rich, saturated colors for a work of this period, with an arresting series of red flowers the keen eye will admire in its otherwise minimalist, comfortable demeanor. It’s an exemplar of folksy charm and art as much as an accent rug, from a distinguished weaving tradition of Americana with vast design applications today.

Condition:

This antique hooked rug further enjoys an overall good condition for its age and origin, with some mild wear consistent with its age and provenance. See less
