Vintage Swedish Kilim, Origin: Sweden, Circa: Mid-20th Century – Classically Scandinavian, this delightful vintage Swedish Kilim depicts a simplistic combination of repeating large- and small-scale stepped lozenges that are set over a sensuous Cream-sicle-orange field that incorporates richly textural variegated details. The elaborate borders dominate the restrained composition and incorporate a variety of folksy compound, complex star motifs that are rendered in a traditional Scandinavian fashion. In the borders, segmented starbursts merge with decorative stepped lozenges creating a radiant repeating pattern and forming a series of decorative eight-pointed stars that emerge in the contrasting outlines. The sophisticated composition and geometric right-angle figures have a rustic yet modern Scandinavian style that is enhanced by the delightfully energetic color scheme.
