Art Deco Rug, Scandinavia, Mid 20th Century – Woven in the mid-20th century, this Art Deco Rya from Scandinavia features an abstract, non-directional pattern that combines strong geometric elements to create a classic minimalist composition. Scarf-like bars with notched ends allow the alabaster field to peek through while the stacked composition creates a dimensional layered effect. Abstract figures rendered in vivid shades of aubergine, navy, pumpkin orange and pineapple yellow are offset by the creamy white background, which creates a stark composition reminiscent of decoupages completed by Matisse. This ultra-modern mid-century rug from Scandinavia features abstract figures rendered in a vivid combination of contrasting colors set on a neutral field that accentuates the Rya’s signature texture.
