A Captivating Open Field Vintage Swedish Reversible Kilim Rug, Origin: Sweden, Circa: Mid 20th Century – Elegantly composed, this beautifully crafted Swedish vintage carpet depicts a subtly patterned field that is surrounded by intricate borders. The face of the field features a tonal pattern of maize-yellow stripes arranged in a gradient pattern. Intricate stepped-lozenge tiles linked by interconnected bars create a broad border that frames the minimalist field. The charming ashen gray border pattern features partial tiles that represent the principle of infinite rapport. The sunny yellow accents are contrasted beautifully by the soft gray hues, which create a definitively modern result. The reverse side features a dominant gray field that is embellished with textural variegation. On the reverse side, the formal borders depict a negative pattern where the warm yellow background becomes the dominant visual force. These unique features make this radiant vintage Swedish Kilim rug versatile and timeless.
