Hand-knotted in lush, high-pile wool in Sweden circa 1960-1970, this 3x5 vintage Swedish Rya rug is a bold new addition to Rug & Kilim’s curation of rare and collectible mid-century rugs of this provenance.On the Design: Connoisseurs will appreciate this piece as one of the most beautiful vintage rugs we’ve curated from this style, with an equally gorgeous and unique design for this craft. Rya rugs are renowned for their colorful, expressive designs and their thick high pile. This piece enjoys a refreshing polychromatic beehive design in hues of gray, brown, orange, and green that evoke a gorgeous Shabby Elegance retro vibe. The design is vivid and complex for works of this technique, though still exemplary of Swedish rugs in their impressionistic, country-chic beauty—from a tradition among the earliest works of minimalistic Scandinavian rya rugs in our collection.
