Vintage Swedish Rug 49020, Country of Origin / Rug Type: Scandinavian Rugs, Circa Date: Mid-20th Century –  True to the elegantly understated style of Swedish Kilims, this beautiful vintage rug features a simple array of colors and shapes that are carefully arranged to create gentle contrast in color and form. The thickest border is set in a stormy gray shade, leading the viewer’s eyes to the softer elements at the heart of this Scandinavian rug.

Here, a larger beige rectangle houses the series of rows within. A round, brown blossom is set against a square bloom that contains several circular outlines within. These two figures are set side by side in an alternating series running down the length of the rug.
