What is this texture called? 1923 house, USA

Homeowner here, trying to learn the finish on my walls before I patch, so the repairs don't stick out. Best I can tell it's a soft stipple/stomp that got lightly knocked down, but I'd rather hear it from people who actually know.

What would you call it, and if you've matched something like this, what did you use? Kind of curious too whether the old-timers did this by hand with a brush. Pics attached.
