Vintage Swedish Kilim by Marta Maas Fjetterstrom, Country of Origin: Sweden, Circa Date: Mid 20th Century

Featuring a combination of checkers, geometric shapes, and stripes, this vintage, Mid Century modern rug, from Sweden presents perfect symmetry that draws attention to its oceanic design. This vintage Swedish kilim, by the iconic Marta Maas Fjetterstrom, utilizes a cool variety of colors consisting of sea greens, mature teals, Aegean blues, and earthy ferns. These colors are further grounded by slate gray and accented by hints of crisp ivory. The viewer’s eye naturally tracks the progress of the checkered pattern, drawing the attention to the center quadrant before taking notice of the alternating triangles that make up the larger sea-colored checkers. This is a truly great great textile art piece by one of the most collectible, if not, the most collectible, of all the Swedish and Scandinavian rug weavers – Marta Maas Fjetterstrom!

These earthy tones and sprouting crisp greens mark the epitome of old Swedish tradition, yet its traditional modernist motifs and striking color patterns inspire most 21st century interior designers and and rug lovers to hang these beautiful kilims as tapestries over spacious white walls, instead, displaying them as if they were beautiful works of textile art.

The spirit of Swedish folklore flows through each strand woven together and embodies a simple but elegant Swedish design that transcends through generations, cultures, and styles. Rugs from Sweden are traditionally known for their incorporation of chic patterns and modern appearances. Naturally, this is what makes them a perfect combination for both traditional styles and modern decor.

The beauty in this vintage Scandinavian rug truly lies in its great diversity. No matter how you style this timeless mid-century modern masterpiece it never fails to make an exciting splash for those who lay eyes on it- turning heads and warming hearts everywhere!
