Inspired by the iconic works of Marta Maas-Fjetterström, this rug represents a sophisticated reimagining of Swedish minimalism and the storied Rollakan weaving traditions.

On the Design:

This modern Scandinavian flatweave features the celebrated "Marta Stripe" pattern, defined by a series of vertical columns separated by delicate geometric borders. The field is rendered in a refined, tonal palette of sage and olive green, punctuated by rhythmic, ivory-colored leaf or step motifs that appear to climb gracefully through the vertical lanes.

Complementing the central field are intricate top and bottom borders showcasing interlocking architectural geometric patterns in a muted olive-green and gold.

Admirers of the craft will appreciate our proprietary technique that both innovates and honors mid-century weaving techniques inherent to Scandinavian style, ensuring the design’s purity is matched by its physical quality. Our flatweave’s more durable, weighted body is a hallmark of the collection, specifically engineered for buckle resistance and longevity in high-traffic or heavy-furniture spaces.

This rug represents R&K Principal Jahanshah Nazmiyal’s vision to honor the mid-century modern aesthetic, serving as a renaissance for these iconic designs through more comfortable, current techniques. It is a sophisticated contribution to the Swedish Deco style, achieving timeless functionality and grace. See less
