The design features a central floral bouquet framed by flowering borders in soft ivory, peach, blush, sage, and golden beige tones.

On the Design:

This elegant antique hooked rug from the collection of Y & B Bolour reflects the refined decorative sensibilities of early twentieth-century folk textile craftsmanship. The design centers on a beautifully drawn floral bouquet medallion, surrounded by an open ivory field that allows the botanical motifs to breathe with remarkable grace. Roses, blossoms, leafy sprays, and scrolling foliage are rendered in delicate shades of peach, blush pink, sage green, golden beige, and soft ivory, creating a palette that is both sophisticated and inviting.

Equally notable is the floral border, which frames the design with cascading blossoms and scrolling vinery inspired by classical garden ornament. The spacious layout and restrained coloration lend the design a sense of lightness and elegance rarely found in hooked rugs of the period. Rich in decorative charm and historical character, this rug represents a distinguished example of hooked rug artistry from the interwar years.
