About the Item

This 2x4 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 captures the whimsical character that made children's rugs from this period particularly coveted among collectors. Connoisseurs will appreciate the playful composition featuring two rabbits as the central motif, rendered with the characteristic naive charm that defines American hooked rugs of this era. The bunnies, depicted in profile facing each other, are executed in a soft gray with thoughtful details including red eyes that add a touch of vibrancy against their muted forms. The field showcases a distinctive striped background in pastel hues of cream, mint green, and coral, creating a subtle rhythmic pattern that enhances the composition without overwhelming the central figures. This horizontal striping technique was particularly favored for children's rugs, adding visual interest while maintaining the focus on the pictorial elements. The piece is framed by a simple taupe border that grounds the design and provides elegant definition to the overall design. This piece offers not only historical significance but also continues to provide the same warmth and whimsy that made these rugs cherished heirlooms for generations. 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.
