About the Item
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. The numbers 18 and 8 are woven in the central diamond medallion. It would have originally been backed with hand-woven wool material and stuffed with down for use as a cushion on a horse carriage.
