About the Item
Antique American Hooked Rug with Lavish Floral Bouquet
Size: 13'1" × 21'10" (398 × 665 cm)
A radiant example of early American textile artistry, this monumental antique hooked rug, circa 1900, captivates with its romantic floral composition and exuberant color palette. Handmade in the United States using traditional hooking techniques, the piece measures an impressive 22 feet by 13 feet, making it a rare find for collectors and connoisseurs of American folk art.
At its heart, a breathtaking cascade of blooming flowers bursts forth in rich hues of crimson, rose, lavender, periwinkle, and blush, all framed against a warm, cream-toned ground. The central floral bouquet exudes organic movement and visual abundance, with blossoms and foliage flowing upward and outward in dynamic symmetry. The saturated colors are delicately shaded, lending a painterly depth that evokes hand-colored botanical illustrations.
The outer field is framed with a sculptural border of scrolling acanthus leaves and cornucopia-like motifs in soft earth tones—taupe, mocha, and dusty rose—imbuing the design with a classical flair. The border both anchors and elevates the composition, reinforcing its ornate, almost Rococo-inspired elegance.
Crafted from wool on burlap or linen backing, the rug’s textural surface is a testament to the skill and care of its maker. Each looped tuft contributes to a dense, tactile quality that has allowed the rug to retain its vibrancy and structure over time. Despite its age, the rug remains a stunning statement piece, suitable for both traditional and eclectic interiors.
This American hooked rug is not only a decorative floor covering but also a cultural artifact—reflecting a period in which domestic craftsmanship met aesthetic ambition. Perfect for grand spaces, it offers history, beauty, and scale in equal measure.
A remarkable vintage rug, from Doris Leslie Blau Collection, features a timeless elegance. Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
