Pictorial Hooked Rug 2247

A charming example of early American textile artistry, this vintage hand-hooked pictorial rug features a stylized bird perched on a tree branch—a timeless motif that evokes themes of nature, serenity, and imagination. The whimsical design is elevated by a warm and inviting color palette, thoughtfully rendered in hand-cut fabric strips that bring life and character to the composition.

Handmade using recycled materials—such as worn clothing and feed sacks—this piece is anchored on a burlap foundation, following the traditional method of stenciling patterns and carefully hooking in each strip of fabric. The ingenuity and artistic spirit of its maker are evident in every loop, resulting in a piece that blends simplicity with expressive folk charm.

Ideal for display as wall art or tabletop decor, this rug is more than a textile—it's a piece of American folk heritage that adds texture, warmth, and narrative to any space.
