Hook / 10904

This Hook wool rug reads as a disciplined grid of cream medallions on a muted green field, each centre a delicate floral star linked by foliate crosses. The wool fibre has settled to a soft, worn hand; the surface shows gentle abrash and even fading that accentuates the pattern and texture. The narrow floral border frames the composition with a quiet, ornamental cadence. An antique rug with an assured, tactile presence and evidence of careful use, it carries a heritage character without ostentation. Circa 1895 - 1910. Size: 262 x 353 cm.
