A handmade Swedish pile Rya rug by Jarvenpaa, circa 1928. It is in excellent original condition, consistent with age. This vintage Swedish rug immediately draws the eye with its warm and sunny color palette and unique Scandinavian design. Its main field displays an abstract design with folkloric motifs framed with a solid brown border. The rug is rendered in beige, orange, pink, light blue and brown.
