Antique German Hooked Rug Runner 3'1 x 12'2. A rare and unusual antique German hooked rug, inspired by the classic motifs of traditional Indian Agra carpets. Rendered in a soft watermelon field accented with delicate blues and muted greens, this piece blends Old World craftsmanship with Eastern design influences. Hooked rugs from Germany are seldom encountered, making this a unique find for collectors and connoisseurs of textile history. A charming and decorative piece with character, suitable for both formal and eclectic interiors.
Vacuum your rug frequently and use a vacuum which uses suction and does not have bristles. If possible, set vacuum to low power setting and vacuum the rug up and down and do not use a back-and-forth motion.
If possible, rotate the rug every few years to allow foot traffic to be spread evenly and shade the rug from direct sunlight to avoid fading in areas.
A rug pad is recommended on all surfaces to prevent slipping and stop marking if on floors with grooves or lines. Professional cleaning is recommended every two or three years.
