Rug & Kilim
This 2x3 demi lune antique hooked rug is a new addition to Rug & Kilim's growing collection of rare collectible works of the provenance—a classic example of early 20th century functional folk art from the United States, made with hand-hooked wool circa 1920-1930.On the Design: This round rug exemplifies the practical yet decorative nature of American hooked rugs designed specifically for entryways. Admirers of the craft will appreciate the bold typography of "WELCOME" arching across the top in cream against a deep green background—a design choice that speaks to the emerging commercial aesthetic of the period while maintaining handcrafted appeal. The centerpiece features a delightful gray dog sitting attentively on a blue ground and a playful cat, creating a whimsical greeting for visitors. This animal motif reflects the popular incorporation of household pets and woodland creatures in domestic textiles of the era. The border employs a rich olive-brown outer edge that frames the composition effectively, while small cream-colored floral or star motifs add decorative interest to the green middle ground. The color palette demonstrates the earthy, subdued tones favored in utilitarian household textiles of the 1920s, with particular emphasis on blue, green, brown, and cream—colors that would have harmonized with the interior woodwork and furnishings of the period while concealing the inevitable wear of an entry rug. This doormat represents an important category in American textile arts—pieces that bridged pure utility with decorative charm, turning even the most mundane household items into expressions of hospitality and home pride. Its inviting message and animal motif continue to convey the same welcoming sentiment a century later, making it not just a collector's item but a functional piece of American textile history that can still serve its original purpose with distinction.Condition: This antique hooked rug has been given a new canvas backing, and further enjoys an overall good condition for its age and origin, with some mild wear consistent with its age and provenance.

This hand-woven rug originates from India, specifically from the state of Rajasthan, known for its rich textile traditions. The design prominently features large fish against a blue ocean-like background, catering to a transitional style that blends traditional and contemporary elements. The border is lined with shrimp motifs, adding to the nautical theme. Constructed from wool on a cotton foundation, this rug’s main color is a soothing shade of blue that mimics the appearance of water. The wool used is a blend of Ghazni wool from Afghanistan and South African wool, creating a dense texture. The rug boasts a high knot density, with approximately 104 knots per square inch, translating to a total of 1,653,266 individually hand-tied knots, highlighting the meticulous craftsmanship involved. Final touch-ups and washing are performed in Jaipur, where both antique and modern finishing techniques are utilized. Chromium dyes are employed for their color accuracy and lightfastness. The rugs are woven by smaller contractors in villages around Jaipur and as far west as Bikaner. Weavers often work from home, being paid by the square meter, with larger rugs necessitating horizontal stationary looms. The asymmetrical Persian-type knotting technique used contributes to the unique ribbed texture that characterizes this collection. A double wefted foundation—thicker at the bottom and finer at the top— also differentiates these rugs. The finer upper weft creates a speckled effect once the rugs are sheared, adding visual interest and a lighter appearance overall. Visually, this rug's aquatic theme is highlighted by various stylized fish motifs, each featuring intricate patterns and vibrant colors like white, red, yellow, and green. Seemingly scattered but balanced, these fish motifs are enhanced by additional marine elements such as seahorses and bubble patterns, all contributing to the underwater theme. The denim-like blue background provides a serene, watery backdrop, while the fish and marine motifs extend to the edges, creating a seamless look. The pattern is asymmetrical with no central focal point, contributing to a dynamic and flowing design.
