Most of the hand made hooked rugs I find are rectangular, and I like finding the oval ones because they are harder to find (and harder to make). This one offers a classic and unique composition, and the floral design offers a colorful ring surrounded by scrolled or arched borders. All of the colors are fairly bright and crisp, and I estimate that the carpet is from the 1930s, possibly a decade either way. This rug was found order in New Jersey pretty much across the river from New York City. Nice rug. The rug measures about 37" by 25" and is in FAIR condition, with no holes, no tears, and the perimeter has some losses and some loose and worn parts, and I have left the loose strands in case you can use them to repair the perimeter. I am a smoke-free and pet-free home, and the carpet has no odors. Just a little wear to the material, some wear to the pile of the center gray/green mottled part, and the rug maintains its structural integrity. The last two photos show the back of the rug. Note that the tiles on the floor in the background of the photos are 12" square, so you can get a sense of scale. Really nice size for a wall hanger. In fair condition.
