Vintage Scandinavian Swedish Kilim Pale Blue Rug, Country of Origin: Sweden / Scandinavia, Circa: Mid 20th Century – Here is a lovely and wonderfully representative vintage carpet – a Swedish pale blue rug that was woven in Scandinavia during the middle years of the twentieth century. Characterized by a palate of soft, almost pastel tones of blue, pink and yellow, this charming Swedish rug also boasts a highly representative composition that beautifully communicates some of the finer points of mid-century Swedish rug design.

A simple and unadorned border of deep blue surrounds the carpet, closing in a field that is separated into five sections. These sections are pardoned off from one another by horizontal bars, striped blue and white. Within each of these sections, a pale blue background serves as the setting for a series of geometric details that are reminiscent of flowers. Underneath all of this modern deconstruction and imagination lies a sense of the traditional.
