Handwoven in a blend of premium wool and undyed natural yarns, this 8x10 rug is from the contemporary flatweaves in Rug & Kilim’s Scandinavian rug collection—its design is inspired by classic Swedish minimalist rug and textile designs of the Scandinavian weaving traditions.
On the Design:
These photos represent a 8x10 rug in this style, handwoven in wool in the Rollakan style. This flatweave enjoys a profoundly rhythmic geometric pattern set against a comfortable, neutral field. The layout features an organized, architectural lattice of interlocking ogee and diamond motifs rendered in warm beige, cream, and soft silver-gray. This structured layout draws inspiration from the Swedish minimalist movement and its iconic historical works, adapted in such a beautifully minimalist fashion that it remains as contemporary in its beauty today as it was during the height of the Scandinavian design era.
Keen eyes will admire the use of purely natural, interwoven yarns for a look of striae and subtle color variation, lending the earthy, neutral surface an organic, luminous depth reminiscent of Swedish textiles. This proprietary technique of ours both innovates and honors classic weaving techniques inherent to traditional Scandinavian style, ensuring the design’s purity is matched by its quality. This contemporary flatweave further enjoys our reputed, heavier body with buckle resistance and greater durability against foot traffic. A comfortable, sophisticated contribution to the Swedish aesthetic, this monumental piece achieves timeless functionality and grace. The accompanying book, Nantucket Looms by Liz Todrig, is part of Volumes by Rug & Kilim. The book (SKU - B049) can be acquired independently through our bookstore.
