Swedish Rug, Scandinavia, c. 1950 – Drawn with clean lines and craftsman precision, this handcrafted Scandinavian kilim captures the incomparable textures, organic variations and strong geometry that flourished during the craftsman era. The uncluttered border-centric composition favors minimalist principles while retaining a sense of tradition and classicism. Inset stepped lozenges meander around the perimeter of the rectilinear composition, which features an unexpected combination of warm and cool tones. Clear ultramarine blues and muted oranges are juxtaposed in opposing tiles and set over a densely variegated background of soft blue hues and flaxen browns that emphasize the handcrafted flat-weave textures. This organic variegation gives the uncompromising geometric motifs a weathered appearance that elevates the monochromatic colors and gives them rare artistic nuances. Handcrafted details, variegated colors and sumptuous flat weave textures possess an artisanal allure that is an indispensable addition to contemporary interiors.
