Information

Rare and early Swedish flatweave carpet, produced in Sweden during the 1930s. This handwoven piece displays a detailed central medallion and symmetrical border pattern, executed in earthy tones of brown and beige with accents of blue, green, cream, and muted red. The composition follows a geometric and floral-inspired design, common in early 20th-century Scandinavian textiles, and demonstrates the influence of Swedish traditional weaving techniques such as rölakan.

The material is wool, woven with a tight, flat structure, giving the carpet durability and a smooth surface suitable for both decorative and functional use. The edges are finished with short fringes, characteristic of handwoven Swedish rugs from this period. Its large format (300 x 190 cm) makes it a striking floor piece, capable of defining a space in a living room or hall.

The condition is good with signs of usage consistent with its age, including minor wear and slight irregularities in the weave, which add to its authentic vintage character. This is a fine example of early Swedish textile design and mid-century Scandinavian craftsmanship, suitable for collectors of rare woven works and for interiors seeking warm, historically rooted design.
