Blue and White Vintage Mid Century Modern Geometric Pattern Flat Weave Swedish Kilim Rug 46850

Vintage Mid Century Modern Swedish Flat Weave Area rug, Country of Origin: Sweden, Circa Date: Mid 20th Century – Expertly blending traditionalism and minimalism, this vintage Swedish flat-weave rug depicts an assortment of distinctive geometric figures that are used in a truly inventive manner. The borders and tiled field achieve harmony in form, line and color by focusing on consistent right-angle motifs with stepped edges and sharp crenellated contours. Lemony yellow outlines and saturated cerulean blues with variegated sea-foam stripes unite the turreted borders with the richly colored stepped lozenges that line the center of the field. Negative space in the taupe inner borders and crisp white ground become the second half of an elaborate counter change pattern that accompanies the primary figures. This graphic Scandinavian composition uses a finite number of simple geometric motifs and tiny confetti squares to tie together the classic colors and fantastic geometric shapes.
