Swedish Flat Weave by Marta Maas-Fjetterstrom BB6367 8'2" × 11'2" $15,000

There are no rugs more excellent in execution and thoughtful in design than those by Marta Maas Fjetterstrom. She is the absolute mother of the awe-inspiring mid-century Scandinavian aesthetics and every piece coming from her hands is the ultimate perfection. This Swedish flat weave is but a pure confirmation of this truth. Permeated with the nostalgic beauty of the Scandinavian countryside, the rug exudes a heartwarming vibe. Its power lies in the sheer disarming simplicity which has the potential of moving even the most hardened hearts. Minimalistic geometric motifs reflect the folklore and tradition of Sweden whereas tranquil pastel shades introduce the atmosphere of serenity and eternal happiness. Although this hand-made piece is rich in colors, the ivory beige background balances the whole composition and constitutes an ideal setting for dusty pink, blue, green and yellow of the motifs. This vintage rug was made in the year which marks the end of the II WW, yet it remains untouched by time due to its remarkable quality. The hand-making of the finest wool ensured that the rug shows no signs of wear or damage whatsoever. It is a Scandinavian weaving wonder which has the potential of bringing warmth and good aura to any interior.
