Antique Allover Floral Cotton Hand Knotted Pile Ivory Beige Cream White 1920s Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This charming textile exemplifies the transition era of early 20th-century weaving, utilizing a dense cotton pile to achieve a soft, almost cloud-like texture. The composition features an intricate allover design of stylized geometric florals rendered in gentle indigo and pale blue hues against a luminous field.

The subdued palette is central to the rug's appeal, offering a sophisticated foundation for any interior. The primary field color is a nuanced ivory beige cream white, which allows the subtle blue motifs to float gracefully across the surface. The deliberate use of cotton, rather than traditional wool, contributes to the slightly faded, matte appearance characteristic of pieces from this period.

Framed by a delicate border showcasing repeating stylized quatrefoils, the rug's scale makes it perfectly suited for transitional spaces or as a statement piece in a reading nook. Whether utilized as a runner or a small scatter size accent (3.06ft x 5.09ft), its tight knotting and robust construction ensure longevity, reflecting the quality craftsmanship of the 1920s.

This piece is a testament to the enduring beauty of early 20th-century textile art, combining traditional motifs with a modern, softened aesthetic. It represents a fine example within our curated collection of exceptional antique rugs, offering both historical value and timeless decorative appeal. See less
