Antique American Hooked Rug, late nineteenth centuryOn this sweet little antique oval hooked rug an elegant bouquet of pastel flowers and leaves hovers amidst a deep tan field with just the hint of landscape rendered in pale lavender. A border of finely outlined leafy scrolls comprises the border surrounded by a cinnamon ground edge. Here we have an American folk art response to the Aubusson and Savonnerie rugs made in France at this time.
