Discover a true piece of American history with this stunning, vintage hand-woven rag rug runner. I recently uncovered this beautiful piece tucked away safely in a closet, and while its exact origin is a family mystery, I know it belonged to one of my grandmothers and likely dates back to the early 1900s to 1940s.
This runner features a gorgeous, vibrant mix of multi-colored stripes that bring an instant warmth and rustic charm to any space. Because it was handmade during an era when every scrap of fabric was precious, it carries a unique soul and texture that modern, factory-made rugs simply cannot replicate.
Dimensions
• Width: 36 inches (3 feet)
• Length: 100 inches (approx. 8.3 feet)
Condition
This rug is being sold as-is. It is structurally sound overall but has one notable area near the bottom that requires a minor yet large repair (a localized hole where the weave has come undone, as pictured). For someone with basic weaving or restoration skills, this is an easy project to mend and restore to its full glory. Aside from this patch, the colors remain wonderfully distinct for its age.
Perfect for a historic farmhouse hallway, a cozy kitchen entry, or as a special restoration project for lovers of antique textiles.
It does ship free.
