Antique Tapestry-Woven Carriage Cushion Cover (rölakan), Sweden
This finely woven, nine-color rölakan displays a detailed yet balanced composition of three large eight-pointed stars framed within stepped-diamond enclosures with small diamonds and geometric motifs scattered across a dark indigo field, surrounded by a wide lightening border.
