Swedish Kilim, Sweden, Mid 20th Century – This phenomenal vintage mid-century flat-weave rug showcases a daring deco-style repeating pattern executed in an elegant, earthy combination of olive green and blushing rose petal pinks. Angular lines with calligraphic pinyin style contours and dimensional shading give the abstract composition an Oriental style that reemerges in the borders. Branching Tree of Life figures and comb motifs with finger-like extensions add a worldly tribal flair to the minimalist design. The balanced color scheme, well-defined rectilinear motifs and textural accents give this vintage Swedish Kilim an elegant appearance that has subtle modern influences, deco-style details and Scandinavian elements that tie the patterns together.
