About the Item

Handmade with wool in Germany circa 1920-1930, this 10x23 antique hooked rug is an extremely rare oversized rug of its kind, and exciting new addition to Rug & Kilim’s curations of this celebrated European weaving tradition—among the few works remaining today of the Tetex provenance. On the Design: Large oval medallions with intricate internal geometric and floral detailing, flanked by matching quarter-medallions in the corners create balanced symmetrical design characteristic of superior carpet design in this antique German Tetex Hooked rug. Keen eyes for detail may admire this distinctive hooked technique that lends a unique texture to the rug, adding a more impressionistic, playful feel to its traditional sensibility. The rich burgundy field provides a luxurious backdrop densely populated with small-scale floral motifs—stylized palmettes, rosettes, and vine scrollwork that demonstrate the precision possible through advanced German weaving technology. The color palette reflects European preference for deep, saturated tones—the burgundy field creating dramatic foundation while ivory border elements provide luminous contrast that frames the design. The elaborate border reveals exceptional geometric mastery through multiple guard borders featuring reciprocal patterns, stylized vine scrollwork, and corner rosettes that demonstrate sophisticated understanding of traditional carpet design hierarchy. This German Tetex rug functions as a commanding centerpiece ideal for traditional or formal interiors celebrating European decorative arts heritage. Condition: This oversized antique German Tetex hooked rug further enjoys good condition for its age and lineage.
