Antique American Hooked Rug American Hooked - Loop Pile, Circa Date: 1920s. This charming American textile represents the enduring tradition of domestic rug making prevalent in the early 20th century. Executed in a loop pile technique, the texture offers a dense, cushioned feel, distinguishing it from flat-woven or knotted antique rugs.

The field is dominated by a rich, warm tan, providing a neutral yet inviting backdrop for the stylized central motif. This use of natural dyes and subtle shading creates a sophisticated patina, highly desirable in earth tone color rugs from this era. The restrained palette ensures versatility in contemporary interiors.

A striking ogee-shaped medallion forms the visual anchor, framed by bands of slate blue and cream. Within and around the central element, highly stylized, four-lobed blossoms in deep crimson provide vibrant contrast. These abstracted floral rugs motifs demonstrate a unique blend of folk art simplicity and structured design.

Its dimensions classify it perfectly among small scatter size rugs, making it ideal for placement beside a chair, in an entryway, or as a decorative wall hanging. This 1920s piece is a testament to American craftsmanship, offering both historical character and enduring decorative appeal. See less
