Vintage flatweave runner by Sverker Greuholm, origin: Sweden, circa 1950 Scandinavian style enchants with unpretentious elegance and therefore is not susceptible to passing days. So is this Swedish runner carpet. Made in the mid-20th century, still retains design freshness. Like other Sverker Greuholm weaving wonders, the antique rug is dominated by mathematical precision. Borders covered with raspberry red keep inside the spectacular geometric patterns. Here extends a contrastive black frame, surrounded by golden edges. Its field is marked by horizontal blue lines, which bring an almost hypnotizing sensation. Moving to the very center, a white rectangle calms down the color-blocking effect. It also features the true stars of the whole pattern. Or shall we say... diamonds? Running through this geometric system, shine bright with their colors of azure blue and soft gray. After all, diamonds are forever - just like the Scandinavian design. The Doris Leslie Blau gallery has one of the largest inventories of antique Scandinavian woven rugs for sale in the Northeast.
