Hook / 11995

A Hook wool rug presented in an oval layout, 274 x 366 cm, featuring a central floral medallion and garlanded sprays in muted green, cream and rose. The hand-hooked face is tactile and softly modelled, the motifs composed with a painterly restraint that reads as refined and quietly domestic. Subtle abrash and even fading temper the palette; small localised wear gives the piece a lived-in, supple patina. This antique rug balances floral tradition with a calm, atelier sensibility, its muted colourway and soft texture speaking to prolonged, careful use. Circa 1920 - 1935
