Rugs carry with them some of the richest histories of antique pieces, and the Antiques Roadshow(TM) Estate-Antique Americana Collection captures these stories in each design. These collectibles are created and inspired by art movements, ancient cultures, and architecture throughout the world.
The works of American folk artists during the 18th and 19th centuries inspire these whimsical hooked designs. The designs draw upon rich and floral motifs and delicate scrollwork. Many of the deisgns are reminiscent of quilting patterns that were made popular during this time. This collection captures these looks beautifully.
