About the Item

Brita Grahn "Blåvinge" Flat Weave Rug, Sweden 1950's signed - 111" x 80" This piece is called “Blue Wings” (“Bla°vinge”). This is an overall compositions of chevron, triangle and square shapes in several tones of blue and green, grey, dark blue and mixed heathered light blue. The design has an interesting sense of movement: the arrow and triangle shapes point from side to side and overlap with the squares, sometimes seeming to become houses, sometime roofs, sometime just abstract color patches. At the sides of the rug the colored triangles poke into the rug’s blue colored border. These and other Rugs designed by Brita Grahn are recognizable for their crisp graphic repeating designs—and for her unusual practice of using her whole name— or at least her whole last name— as a signature. On earlier rugs she may have signed Brita Grahn, with capital letters, but later adopted brita grahn as more modern.
