Burnt Orange Color Geometric Pattern Vintage Mid Century Modern Swedish Kilim Rug 47615

Vintage Swedish Kilim, Origin: Sweden, Circa: Mid-20th Century  – Here is a charming vintage rug – a mid-century modern Scandinavian rug of Swedish rug origin, characterized by a vibrant palate and a representative minimalist aesthetic. Mid-Century modern, vintage Swedish kilims, or flat-woven rugs, such as this piece, have enjoyed a resurgence in popularity in recent years, driven by an increased appreciation for the design preferences of the 1940’s-1960’s. This fetching vintage rug from Scandinavia, with its stark field of shades of red, brilliantly embodies the most notable proclivities of the finest mid-century designers; specifically, the proclivity to communicate depth through negative space, and the proclivity to utilize simple geometric figures to represent complex ideas. The yellow, white and brown rectangles that populate the bright red of the field appear frozen in time, like so many bricks in a beautiful, aging building, giving the entire rug a feeling of solidness and strength.
