Mid-20th Century Yellow Brown Swedish Flat-Weave Rug by Birgitta Solderkvist BB6884 4'4" × 6'6" $5,000

This vintage Swedish flat – weave by Brigitta Solderkvist constitutes the essence of Scandinavian craftsmanship. Both its execution and design exhibit timeless qualities. The main field is left entirely plain to give way to the more ornamental geometric border which bears traditional northern motifs of crosses and rhombuses.

Everything is complemented by a warm and balanced color palette based on camel and ochre with lighter touches of off-white and gray. The flat-weave was meticulously hand-made of the finest wool which ensures its ever-lasting quality. If properly cared for, this vintage Swedish antique rug will please the senses of its owner for generations, bringing in charm and heart-warming appeal of Scandinavian artistry.
