Vintage Swedish Geometric Rug in Cream-Beige with Pictorials Rug & Kilim

About the Item

Made with hand-knotted wool circa 1960-1970, this 6x8 vintage Swedish Rya rug is a bold new addition to Rug & Kilim’s curation of rare and collectible mid-century rugs of this provenance. On the Design: This design draws inspiration from primitive Nordic pictographs, against an ivory ground, delicate markings in charcoal, coral, and sage create rhythmic horizontal bands that evoke ancient runic writings and petroglyphs. Admirers of the craft will appreciate how the design pays homage to Swedish folk traditions while achieving remarkable modernity through its abstract quality. The seemingly spontaneous arrangement of symbols—some geometric, others more organic—creates a compelling visual language. The restrained palette enhances the design's simplicity, allowing the linear elements to command attention. Keen eyes will appreciate this vintage rug for its whimsical yet graceful and comfortable sensibilities, in the most exceptional color and a great size suited to wider spaces—as versatile for interior design as it is collectible for admirers of this provenance.
