About the Item

Created by Swedish textile designer Märta Måås-Fjetterström in 1933, this traditional hand-woven Swedish flatweave has an ivory striated field with overall polychrome serrated panel pattern, in a playful counterposed polychrome geometric border. Signed AB MMF for Märta Måås-Fjetterström Studio. About the Master weaver: The Mid-Century Swedish paradigm would not exist without the contributions of Marta Maas-Fjetterström. Born in June of 1873, she went on to open her workshop in 1919 and produced a prolific collection of Swedish rugs until her passing in 1941. Her rugs were known for featuring bright pastel geometric patterns and stylized representations of the natural world. Mid-Century designers, collectors and consumers all-over the world covet her work dearly, as evidenced by the scores of Swedish designers that followed in Marta’s footsteps.
