Early 20th Century American Hand Hooked Rug in a Bird and Flowers Design

About the Item

Early 20th Century hand hooked rug in a wonderful bird and flowers design in earth tone color pattern. The rug has one of the most delightful designs we have seen in vintage American hand hooked rugs. We are intrigued with the novelty and the imagination of the maker in creating such a wonderful and rare design in earth tone colors including tan, green, yellow and brown. The colors on the top part have faded because of over 100 years of exposure to light but the original colors are shown in the back. The piece would be a wonderful wall art displayed either on the front or the back. The hooked rugs from the late 19th and early 20th centuries are made with recycled old material, often used clothing that had been cut into narrow stripes. The foundation of hooked rugs is generally burlap material which the maker uses the stenciling technique to transfer the pattern into the surface. Once the design has been transferred to burlap, it would then be filled with the recycled material stripes and more recently yarn using the hooking technique. Because of the delicacy in the material and construction of vintage hand hooked rugs, they should be used with care. The use of special design and the brilliant colors makes this truly an artistic piece wonderful to be used as a wall art or displayed on a table. Antique Hooked Rugs are a combination of Folk Art Creativity and Simplicity. When it comes to true simplicity and artistic creativity Antique Hooked Rugs have some of the best representations.
