Antique Hooked Rug in Beige-Cream Mansion Pictorial - Rug & Kilim

About the Item

This 2x3 antique hooked rug is a delightful addition to Rug & Kilim's growing collection of rare and collectible works of the provenance—a charming example of early 20th century folk art from the United States, made with hand-hooked wool circa 1920-1930. On the Design: This antique hooked pictorial rug showcases the more sophisticated end of American folk textile art, depicting a stately colonial-style mansion with architectural detail. Admirers of the craft will appreciate the ambitious rendering of this grand residence, which represents a departure from the more common cottage or farm scenes typically found in hooked rugs of this period. The imposing structure features a distinctive mansard roof in vibrant red, creating a compelling visual contrast against the beige facade and establishing a sense of grandeur. The colorway demonstrates particular refinement, with a rich russet-red border framing a golden-yellow inner border that echoes the warm tones of the autumnal trees flanking the residence. The design achieves remarkable symmetry, with the central pathway leading directly to the front entrance and balanced landscaping elements creating a sense of formal garden design appropriate to the status of the depicted home. This rug represents an important documentary record of American architectural pride and prosperity in the early 20th century, when the stately home became an emblem of achievement and aspiration—-a decorative masterwork that speaks to the highest achievements of American textile traditions. Condition: This antique hooked rug has been given a new canvas backing, and further enjoys an overall good condition for its age and origin, with some mild wear consistent with its age and provenance.
