About the Item

This is a very rare Scandinavian Modern high-pile wool rya rug has soft, muted natural tones of rose pink, wheat yellow, light and graphite grey, and moss green which brings a calm elegance to this versatile piece. The high pile creates a dynamic surface that shifts slightly depending on how it's brushed. The design blends geometric shapes with an organic feel, incorporating triangles and squares. Whether used as a rug, wall hanging, blanket, or draped over a sofa or chair, this piece adds warmth and style to any space, complementing rattan chairs beautifully. Perfectly sized for beside the bed, it provides a soft, cozy landing for your feet each morning. Hand-knotted with high-quality "Kamgarn" wool yarn, crafted through a worsted spinning process that aligns fibers for a smoother and more refined finish than standard wool. The base of the rug is woven from a blend of wool and linen for added durability. This original high-pile abstract Rya rug, created in Sweden during the 1960s, features an abstract geometric yet organic design in true Scandinavian style. Its timeless craftsmanship and striking simplicity make it a captivating addition to any home, perfect for adding character and serving as a statement piece in any room.
