A Fun and Whimsical Small Long And Narrow Vintage Swedish Rag Rug, Country of Origin: Sweden, Circa Date: Mid 20th Century – Textural, functional and stylish, this quintessential vintage rug from Sweden incorporates a wondrous amalgamation of colorful remnants and leftover materials. The beautiful blend of flattering neutrals and vibrant accent colors gives the perfectly varied composition a cottage-style glamour that exudes warmth and comfort. The tonal and textural variations span the spectrum in every sense. Fluctuating colors and dazzling polychrome details give the surface of this Swedish rug a raucous appearance that is softened by the constant tabby weave textures. These diametric qualities produce an artful result that is ethereal yet solid. The rapidly shifting colors have a fleeting, ephemeral presence balanced by the repetitive motion of the broad stripes and woven patterns, which give this vintage Swedish rag rug its distinctive appearance.
