Some of these rugs still have a day left on the auction site, some have bids on them. Other rugs may have been found weeks before and have sold already. This first rug was said to be 'bear paws' by the listing agent. But they didn't provided date or dimensions.
A seemingly quite faded reclining dog with corner scrolls. Wish they had shown the backside to see the true colors. But do like the primitive design.
A little early for Halloween is this rug hooked by Nancy Gertrude Scott, daughter of Barbara E. Merry. It has bids on it and will sell soon.
Another a little too early for the season is this Christmas rug for sale, also hooked by NGS. They happen to be on the auction site now. You can see them HERE.
Below is a rug with birds in flight with scrolls (23 x 36) no date provided.
The auction house advertised this as a 1920's deco folk art rug. This doesn't seem to fit in that category of 'deco art' to me. Measures 29 x 51 and I like those earthy colors.
A sizeable Barbara E. Merry rug she named "Billings Hill" measures 31 x 48 and sold for $425.

A geometric found somewhere in my searches and have no date or dimensions. Again, nice earthy colors.
I've had this next double stag rug in my photos since January this year and want to finally post it. Hooked between 1890-1920 with dimensions of 84 x 96. I like the deer but that's about it.

A black and white cat hooked early 20th century (25.5 x 40.5). Cat's expression seems to be saying, "I love you too". Except the cat's I've had were far too independent to emit that emotion.
