On the Design:

This kilim features an expansive, all-over Geometric Lattice composed of finely interlocking diamonds and triangles.

The design is a sophisticated take on traditional folk geometry, where the shapes are broken into distinct bands of color, creating a mesmerizing sense of dimension and depth.

The entire composition is rendered in a Monochromatic Raspberry Palette, utilizing deep, saturated reds, subtle rose pinks, muted browns, and a calming central field of pale beige/cream.

The presence of delicate, striped textural details within some of the triangles further exemplifies the finesse of the Scandinavian weaving tradition.

Admirers of the craft will recognize this piece as a bold, graphic work that perfectly marries the precision of Mid-Century Modern aesthetics with the timeless structure of tribal kilims. This is a personal vintage work—a piece of weaving history that brings quiet elegance, textural contrast, and the rich beauty of Swedish geometric art to any space.
