Two antique handbook rugs, one 4'6" x 2'7" with a mother cat and two kittens, and the other 4'4"" x 2'10" with a pair of floral cornucopia. Each rug has loose or worn threads around the sides (more on the floral) and seems almost reversible, save for some eye detail and flower tie-offs. The cats rug has more bare spots and spot residue on the front left and a 2" edge tear. In general, both are whole and could be tapestry-hung. The rugs appear hooked with skill and variation on a burlap material. Please see photos for more detail.
