Oval Hooked Rug with Pictorial Silhouettes - 1'10 x 2'11

Four bird silhouettes and a few blossoms complete the scene. The soft blue background fills the rest of the scene and has a lovely abrash throughout. A thin pink border (the same color as the flowers) delineates the blue border around the rug.  In good condition, signs of wear are consistent with age.
