This vintage Swedish rug was woven circa 1930 but has a bit of modernity to it that would not look out of place in a contemporary home. What catches the eye is certainly its symmetrical pattern. A net adorned with circles may be a simplified image of a poppy field or maybe just a stunning geometric composition. Not a line is out of place, making this vintage rug a true masterpiece. The two-toned color palette perfectly suits this composition. Creamy beiges and warm browns make this Swedish rug seem even more homely, while not making it look outdated. The rug was handwoven at Kest Hall and it is very easy to see how much effort and attention to detail was put into it. Durable and light, this vintage carpet will be undoubtedly a great addition to any household. The size of this vintage Swedish rug, 4'4" x 6'7" (132 x 201 cm), makes it a perfect choice for most interiors, from bedrooms to home offices.

This 3x6 vintage tapestry runner is a signed collectible from the mid-century Aubusson works of French artist Jean-Claude Bissery. Handwoven in wool and originating from France circa 1940-1950, it’s both a rare collectible and one of an exciting new curation of works from this artist in Rug & Kilim’s European rug and tapestry collection. On the Design: “Forestière” (which translates to “Forestry”) is an aptly named pictorial design, with an almost abstract impressionist depiction of teeming woodlife. A cream tone underscores both rich and vibrant colors in the illustration of trees, birds, branches and leaves in chartreuse green, golden yellow, raspberry red and oak brown. The marriage of such an idyllic natural setting and autumnal tones with such a graphic sense of dimensionality and boldness is exemplary of Bissery’s works, as well as the mid-century French Aubussons of his contemporaries known for their similar approaches to this iconic mid-century modern sensibility. It’s a masterpiece with striking detail for its construction, with a fabulous sense of whimsy and presence for any space—a true collector’s piece to be treasured. Condition: This vintage Aubusson tapestry further enjoys great condition for its age and origin—an extremely collectible work. Ideally for exclusive use in wall-hanging projects and similar applications.

Handwoven in wool and originating from Morocco circa 1950-1960, this 4x8 vintage runner rug is a rare and among the most exciting new additions to Rug & Kilim’s mid-century curations from the region.On the Design: This mid-20th century tribal piece exemplifies the sophisticated minimalism that has elevated Beni Ourain Moroccan textiles to icons of contemporary design. The charcoal and taupe geometric patterns distribute across the cream field with irregularity—dense clusters alternating with open areas to create breathing space and prevent visual monotony. Each motif maintains individual character while contributing to the overall design balance. The pattern density shifts subtly from top to bottom, beginning with concentrated linear arrangements that gradually dissolve into more dispersed formations. This creates subtle directional flow without compromising the design's essential spontaneity. Most compelling is the design's ability to function simultaneously as abstract and symbolic narrative. The restrained monochromatic palette further makes it an exciting addition to contemporary spaces looking for character. Condition: This vintage Moroccan runner rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin.
