Swedish Rug, Scandinavia, Mid 20th Century – Rendered in a delicate selection of soft pastel colors, this charming shabby chic kilim from Sweden features a formal paneled field surrounded by floral swags and coffered blossoms set inside precise squares. This delicately colored and styled kilim has a distinct feminine presence with dainty floral motifs constructed entirely with right angles. Strong gray bars span the field breaking up the soft oatmeal-colored background and connecting the promenade of angular blossoms that line the edges of the composition. The delicately colored swags that enclose the precisely drawn field continue the soft pastel color palette that includes rosy pink, orange and spring green. Created circa 1950, this understated vintage kilim features delicate colors, charming floral motifs and dainty rectilinear foliage rendered with adroit right-angle motifs that remain elegant and graceful.
