Vintage American Hand Hooked Rug in a Stripe Pattern in Blue, Green, Red, Taupe
Located in Barrington, IL
Discover the charming simplicity and enduring artistry of American folk craft with this Vintage American Hand Hooked Rug, meticulously handcrafted in the 1st quarter of the 20th century. This delightful piece features a classic stripe pattern, brought to life with a harmonious palette of serene blue, verdant green, classic red, and earthy taupe.
The tradition of "hooking" rugs originated in New England, starting as a creative pastime for farmers during the long, cold winter nights of the Northeast in the early 1800s. These rugs, once functional pieces for the home as either table decorations or wall art, embody a unique blend of folk art creativity and simplicity.
Historically, hooked rugs from the late 19th and early 20th centuries were resourcefully made using recycled materials, often narrow strips cut from old clothing. The pattern was typically stenciled onto a burlap foundation, then filled with these recycled strips (and later, yarn) using the distinctive hooking technique. This rug's special design and brilliant colors make it a truly artistic creation.
Due to the inherent delicacy in the material and construction of vintage hand hooked rugs...
