Although we are used to seeing all modern rugs featuring the boldest and most colorful of designs, this modern carpet decided to go another way and experiment with something that is often forgotten by weavers and the public – texture. Handwoven using materials of the highest quality, this piece boasts a rather fascinating composition, which reminds me of a warm winter sweater. The weaver experimented with multiple ways of knotting to create a true masterpiece.

The genius of great Salvador Dali seems to live on not only in his own works but also in those of artists looking up to him. This particular piece, handwoven from the highest quality wool, looks as if it was found in Dali’s atelier. Although this composition looks chaotic, a closer look reveals some resemblance to order. The pattern consists of seemingly random splashes of color spread all over the background. The colors themselves are rather subdued, but it does not take away any of the rug’s vast charm – on the contrary, such a palette makes the abstract area rug appear more original. Such a modern piece would look best in an equally modern setting, however, minimalist interiors will undoubtedly love it too.

This charming modern rya reflects the quintessence of Scandinavian craftsmanship. It was modeled on a modern area rug designed by the great Marianne Richter which she executed in the workshop of Marta Maas Fjetterstrom, and the spirit of both geniuses is visible in every inch of this remarkable fabric. The Swedish shag rug proudly bears the famous sunflower design known as “Solrosen”, with the bold flower head located in the center and its petals gradually spreading out to the edges. The pattern is complemented by a warm and invigorating color palette of rose, hibiscus, burgundy, and orange, paired with mauve, against the ivory background. Although simplistic and bordering on naïve art, the design is actually extremely sophisticated and adjusted to contemporary decorating standards. It has a chance to bring some light and joy to any interior arrangement, from classic to modern. However, the aesthetic side is not the only forte of this fine Swedish-inspired rya rug. Its firm body and the shaggy pile were meticulously hand-knotted of first-rate wool, thanks to which, if properly cared for, it will serve its owners for generations. Lovely and chic, the carpet based on Marianne Richter’s genius design is the answer for those who seek effortless elegance in a timeless dimension. Mid-century Swedish-inspired rug made in India.
