About the Item

A striking example of American textile artistry, this mid-19th century blue and white Jacquard coverlet is dated 1847 and showcases rich patriotic and natural symbolism. The central field features repeating floral medallions, while the border is adorned with stylized trees and birds — a motif popular in folk art textile traditions. The corner block displays a bold American eagle flanked by stars, underscoring the patriotic spirit of the era. Woven entirely by hand using a Jacquard loom, this coverlet not only exemplifies exceptional craftsmanship but also the uniquely personal tradition of the time, where the names of recipients or makers were often woven into the lower corners of the textile. While this particular piece does not bear a legible name, it's clear date and iconic design elements speak to its authenticity and heritage. A museum-quality piece, ideal for collectors of American folk art, decorators working with historic interiors, or anyone seeking a meaningful textile accent with both visual and historic impact.

19th Century Square Size Chinese Peking Area Rug in Ivory, Navy, Sky Blue
Located in Barrington, IL
A rare and elegant 19th-century Chinese Peking rug in an uncommon square format, this piece features a serene ivory ground complemented by accents of navy and sky blue. Its refined design includes a subtle border lattice rendered in contrasting shades of blue, offering a sophisticated balance of geometry and minimalism. The square proportions are particularly noteworthy—small Chinese Peking rugs of this shape and scale are exceedingly rare and sought after by collectors and interior designers. Originally handwoven for the elite in the Qing Dynasty period, these rugs combine aesthetic restraint with expert craftsmanship.
