About the Item

Vintage American Hooked rug Size: 11'4" × 14'2" (345 × 431 cm) This exquisite early 20th-century American hooked rug blends pastoral charm with refined craftsmanship. Woven around the 1920s, the piece features a distinctive floral medallion design at its center: two concentric rings of blooming ivory magnolia blossoms with deep green leaves, rendered in beautifully shaded yarns that evoke a painterly quality. The verdant mossy green field provides a tranquil backdrop, subtly mottled with abstract tonal variations that create a sense of organic depth and visual interest. This nuanced ground is reminiscent of weathered garden walls or forest floors, grounding the floral composition in a serene, nature-inspired palette. Surrounding the central wreath, the expansive open field is bordered by a narrow band of light beige, followed by a broader soft sage green outer border. This framing structure offers balance and harmony, lending the piece a classical elegance while still maintaining the rustic character typical of American hooked rugs. Handcrafted from wool with a looped pile, this rug embodies the utilitarian artistry of American folk traditions. Its large scale (approximately 14' x 11') makes it ideal for anchoring a living or dining room, offering both warmth and visual sophistication. A rare example of botanical charm and artistic restraint, this hooked rug would be a unique addition to any interior that embraces vintage Americana, cottage style, or understated traditional décor. 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.
