Hook / 12598

This Hook antique rug is composed in wool, the design arranging square floral panels within a measured grid, intersections marked by six-point rosettes. The colourway reads as soft rose over cream and white grounds with gentle green accents; the vintage palette has mellowed with time. The wool shows a plush, slightly worn pile and discreet abrash that lends the surface a lived-in, tactile quality. Borders are restrained, allowing the repeating squares to read as a unified field. Measurements are 264 x 353 cm. Circa 1895 - 1910. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
