Vintage Finnish Scandinavian Pile Rug 3367

Vintage Scandinavian Finnish Pile Rug, Country Origin: Finland, Circa Date: Early 20th Century – This extraordinary Art Deco Finnish Arts and Crafts carpet with its striking design of allover medallions harks back to medieval Scandinavian textiles, and perhaps to Turkmen carpets as well. Deep blue green octagons with cruciform ornaments are set against a rust cocoa ground with similar cruciform fillers in this striking vintage rug. A bold zig-zag border adds a different and unexpected element that nicely complements the finer ornament of the field.
