Antique American Hooked Rug American Coral 1920s, Circa Date: 1920s. This charming example of an American hooked rug captures the folk artistry popular during the early 20th century, utilizing recycled fabrics to create a durable and deeply textured surface.

The field is defined by a sophisticated, muted shade of coral pink—a desirable hue among coral pink color rugs that provides a warm, inviting backdrop. This ground is subtly animated by vertical lines of varying colors, lending an abstract, rain-like quality to the composition, characteristic of the era's departure from strict realism.

A continuous, stylized vine borders the central space, featuring stylized blossoms and leaves rendered in shades of sage green, slate blue, and bright orange. This playful use of floral rugs contrasts sharply with the somber, striped outer guard band, making it a standout piece among early 20th-century antique rugs.

Characterized by its dense loop pile and sturdy construction, this piece was designed for daily use, embodying the American tradition of textile resourcefulness. Its dimensions classify it perfectly within the category of small scatter size rugs, making it an ideal accent piece for an entry hall, bedroom, or intimate sitting area. See less
