Beautiful Vintage Scandinavian Swedish Kilim Rug by Marta Maas Fjetterstrom 49128, Country of Origin / Rug type: Scandinavian Rug, Circa Date: Mid-20th Century – Few vintage rugs can master expression and space in just a few colors quite as well as Swedish kilims. This masterpiece, by the iconic Marta Maas Fjetterstrom, uses a limited color palette to create defining points of contrast through the surface, establishing both negative and positive space in a powerful way. A thin beige border surrounds the center of the Scandinavian rug, which itself is defined by the presence of the two colors, light and dark, clashing against each other only to be broken up every now and then by the presence of a wavy red horizontal line, which adds further contrast and grounding to the static-like forms within.
