Hallway Runner Rugs (2.02ft x 9ft), Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional piece of American textile history represents the finest qualities found in antique rugs of the early 20th century. Crafted with a durable wool and cotton blend using the traditional hooked loop pile technique, it offers a textural depth rarely seen in later reproductions.

The design features a mesmerizing, tightly packed geometric arrangement, often referred to as a "Log Cabin" pattern in textile arts. This structure creates a strong visual rhythm across the entire field, establishing it as a superb example of allover rugs. The consistent repetition ensures that the pattern remains engaging without overwhelming the surrounding decor.

A sophisticated palette defines this runner, utilizing deep, saturated hues of forest green, ruby red, plum, and slate gray. The interplay of these rich colors elevates the folk art construction to a high decorative standard, making it a striking addition to any collection of multicolor jewel tone rugs. The loop pile finish softens the sharp angles of the geometric motifs, lending the surface a pleasing, tactile quality.

Its elongated, narrow format is perfectly suited for high-traffic transitional spaces, providing both insulation and artistic interest. Whether placed in a long gallery or a formal entryway, this piece functions beautifully among hallway runner rugs, offering a unique blend of rustic charm and precise geometric artistry characteristic of the post-Victorian era.
