About the Item

An American Braided room-size carpet from the third quarter of the 20th century in rustic tones. Measures: 8'7'' x 11'2'' Although America (British-America) has been producing rugs since the 16th century it was never industrialized at the time. Colonial America had been importing European rugs through England. However, tariffs after the Revolutionary War concluded the importation business. The American rug industry boomed during the third quarter of the 19th century. What started off as a makeshift homemade project by women in the late 16th to early 17th century, braiding scrap clothing and fabrics to provide warmth and a feeling of protection for homes had now become popularized in American fashion, design, and trade. Vintage American Braided rugs similar to this one are now promoted by interior designers and upscale magazines. It has made its comeback in traditional American Colonial, country, and cottage-style homes and retains its timeless appeal. Representing family, love, and comfort, these rugs famously placed on the hearth side have once again brought simplicity back into American homes.
