Swedish Rugs, Scandinavia, Mid 20th Century – Created in Sweden, this splendid Kilim rug was designed and signed by Ingegerd Silow depicts a formal double-medallion composition that is rendered in a chic combination of soft earth tones, maize yellows and delicate periwinkle purples. The formal and precisely composed layout is carefully softened by the stylized florals and clever abstractions that support the main elements. The central medallions incorporate a complex variety of crenellated accents and radiant cornerstones that unfold into stylized blossoms and elegant botanical torches. The warm ecru-colored field features a rich variegated texture that creates a calming background. Poly chromatic borders accented with stepped notches and lozenge-shaped corner pieces support the lavish double-medallion composition. This sophisticated vintage Swedish Kilim features a broad color scheme that is centered on chic earth tones, saffron yellows and periwinkle blue accents.
