About the Item

This beautiful American rag rug, handcrafted in the mid-1900s, showcases a timeless banded design in natural earth tones reminiscent of late 19th-century Scandinavian kilims. Woven from repurposed fabrics, this rug embodies the ingenuity and artistry of American folk traditions. The soft yet structured color palette—featuring muted browns, beiges, and clay reds—lends the piece a modern, minimalist feel while maintaining its vintage charm. American rag rugs like this one are celebrated for their sustainable origins, using recycled textiles in creative and decorative ways. The clean, linear pattern and harmonious hues make it a versatile piece that integrates beautifully with contemporary, rustic, bohemian, or Scandinavian-inspired interiors. Whether styled as a floor covering, a wall tapestry, or layered for added texture, this rug offers warmth, character, and authenticity to any living space.
