Vintage Swedish Carpet by Marta Maas 47290

Size: 5 ft 2 in x 8 ft 3 in (1.57 m x 2.51 m)

Designed by Marta Maas-Fjetterstrom, this distinguished vintage Swedish kilim features the enduring, infinitely stylish “Heden” pattern in a warm, earthy colorway.

Swedish Kilim rug, Scandinavia, Mid-20th Century – Exceptionally versatile and attractive, this classic Marta Maas-Fjetterstrom vintage rug features the popular “Bruna Heden” pattern woven in mango orange, mulberry red and a warm selection of earthy browns paired with charcoal and citrine accents. Stepped lozenges and geometric figures form a versatile and understated repeating pattern accentuated by contrasting outlines, hash-mark stripes and constant rectilinear forms that pop up throughout the composition. The graphic repeating pattern and rectilinear border designs have a strong visual style and warm handcrafted aura. Soft color variations and tactile flat-weave textures give the geometric design artisanal nuances and intangible assets associated with the hand-wrought creations of the Arts and Crafts era. Much like today’s eclectic works, this vintage mid-century kilim has a classic geometric visage augmented by ram’s horn scrolls and subtle details that hint at the artist’s international influences.
