A composed Chinese Hook rug, 170 x 259 cm, arranged as a checkerboard of small squares with alternating concentric step-corners and floral sprays. The wool pile carries soft pinks and creams with pale blue and muted green accents, while defined dark lines give the pattern structure. Surface wear is low with subtle abrash and a small area of localized pile loss; borders remain intact. This antique rug reads like a stitched composition, its tactile surface and considered colourway reflecting handcraft and restrained age. Circa 1925 - 1940 The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
