On the Design:

Connoisseurs will appreciate this piece as a bold example of the Swedish Rya tradition, utilizing a rigid linear structure within a high-contrast palette. This hand-knotted shag rug delivers exceptional textural depth and a playful, modern energy.

The pattern is a masterful study in geometry, featuring a series of dense vertical black stripes set against a cool slate-gray field. This architectural framework is punctuated by a rhythmic lattice of vibrant pink diamond accents that appear to float across the surface.

The interaction of these "neon" pops against the somber verticality creates a visual depth, with the pile's natural shading making the colors appear mottled and dimensional.

This rug is a highly dimensional work of textile art, perfectly suited for an interior needing authentic vintage texture and a contemporary graphic edge.

Condition:

This vintage Swedish rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin. See less
