Within the brown bands, thin lines of cream are woven through, enhancing the movement and texture of the shag pile.This rug is a highly dimensional work of textile art, perfectly suited for a space needing authentic vintage texture and a warm, grounding foundation. It brings an unparalleled sense of simple sophistication and classic Mid-Century warmth to any Modernist, Transitional, or Minimalist setting.Condition:This vintage Swedish rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin.
