Vintage American Hooked Rug in Fruit Blocks Pattern
Located in Barrington, IL
Vintage American hand hooked area rug in a fruit block pattern circa the early 20th century. The very unique and beautiful design in this vintage folk art hooked rug consists of a 5 x 3 block pattern each containing the design of a different fruit. The design is set on a tan color background with a green and brown border for the rug and blocks. The colors for the fruit in each block are vibrant and make them stand out. Beautiful piece of Americana folk art to be used as a table top display or a wall art.
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. 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.
Dimensions: 28” x 45”

Originally created for functional use—as a horse blanket, saddlebag, or part of a mafrash (bedding bag)—this piece now carries forward its legacy as a decorative artifact full of meaning and authenticity.
With its rich textures, handwoven Soumak technique, and tribal motifs, it invites the viewer on a journey to distant lands, evoking the rhythms of nomadic life and the enduring artistry of Persian village and tribal cultures.
