Hook / 12698

A delicate Hook worked in wool, its luminous cream field is filled with garlanded floral sprays and vertical vine motifs that read like a painted textile. A deep navy border frames ornate corner cartouches and a repeating star motif, lending contrast to the soft pastel flowers. The surface shows even age and the whisper of fold lines that attest to years of careful use. This antique rug balances a refined, tactile presence with an almost painterly palette. Circa 1900 - 1915. Measures 9' 0" x 12' 0". The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
