Antique Quilt Small Scatter Size Wool & Cotton Multicolor Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional piece, woven primarily from wool and cotton, defies typical rug categorization by adopting a design aesthetic reminiscent of American folk textiles. Its unique construction and charmingly naive imagery place it firmly among desirable antique rugs of the early 20th century.

The field is composed of a repeating grid of small, embroidered-style floral vignettes set against a subtly patterned dusty rose ground. These individual panels—some square, some diamond-shaped—create a dense, captivating surface, resulting in an effective allover rugs design that minimizes negative space and maximizes visual interest.

The palette is rich yet restrained, utilizing a soft, warm ground color that allows the embroidery-like motifs to truly shine. Hues of crimson, sage, lavender, and gold are carefully balanced, contributing to a vibrant composition that classifies this piece among multicolor jewel tone rugs prized for their versatility and depth.

Measuring in the category of small scatter size rugs, this textile offers remarkable flexibility for placement, whether used to define a small entryway, accent a dressing area, or serve as a unique wall hanging. Its blend of domestic charm and sophisticated craftsmanship ensures it functions as both a functional floor covering and a cherished piece of textile art. See less
