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...

Antique Boule Ball "G", Pétanque, 1880s, France, Craftsmanship
Located in Greven, DE
Beautiful, unique Boule ball, France, late 19th Century.
In the 19th century, the manufacture of boules balls underwent significant development in France as the game of boules, particularly the pétanque variant, gained in popularity. The manufacture of boules balls during this period was a manual process that required expertise, precision and love to detail.
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, particularly in rural areas of France and other Mediterranean regions, olive wood was a commonly used source of material for making boules balls. This was not only due to the availability of the material, but also to the outstanding properties of olive wood, which was characterized by hardness, strength and a rich grain.
First, the olive wood was carefully selected and shaped into raw balls, which were then sanded to the desired size and shape. The nails were then hammered into the balls one by one, making sure that they were evenly distributed and firmly anchored. Finally, the spheres were polished and coated with a protective varnish to enhance their natural beauty and protect them from the elements.
The use of nails to decorate and reinforce olive wood boules was a traditional practice that not only gave the ball a rustic aesthetic, but also improved its durability and contributed to customization. Many balls were made according to the specific requirements and preferences of the players. Nails were driven at regular intervals around the ball, with each nail hole precisely placed so as not to affect the balance and weight distribution of the ball. These nails not only served as a decorative element, but also helped to strengthen the structure of the ball and make it more resistant to the hard knocks and wear and tear during play. Individual engravings or decorations were often applied to the balls to make them unique and identify the player.
