These hand-loomed coverlets were woven in the United States during the 19th century, typically in domestic settings. The overshot weaving technique used contrasting wool and cotton threads to create intricate geometric patterns, often inspired by European designs but adapted to local traditions. These textiles were prized for their warmth and beauty, serving as bed coverings or decorative throws. Signs of wear and repair reflect their utilitarian use and the skilled craftsmanship of early American weavers.
