Small Scatter Size American Wool Ivory Antique Hooked 1920s Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This charming example of an American hooked rug captures a distinctive pictorial scene rendered in dense, textured wool. Its compact dimensions classify it as a highly desirable small scatter size, perfect for intimate spaces or wall display.

Dating to the 1920s, this piece reflects the enduring appeal of folk art within the tradition of antique rugs. The central scene is framed by a rich, tactile field dominated by an ivory color palette, accented with earth tones, deep browns, and subtle hints of mauve and olive green, lending the composition a rustic warmth.

The hooked technique creates a robust, nubby surface, emphasizing the naive charm of the figures and the surrounding architecture. While primarily narrative, the paving stones and structural elements utilize simple, repeating geometric patterns that provide necessary structure to the composition, anchoring the figures firmly within their setting.

Crafted from high-quality American wool, the rug retains excellent pile integrity, showcasing the lasting durability inherent in these early 20th-century textiles. This unique piece serves not only as floor covering but as a compelling piece of textile history, offering a sophisticated, handcrafted accent to any curated interior. See less
