Title   Rare vintage Swedish semi antique woven wool rug Rollakan carpet ryamatta original 1950's mid century

 


Description

Rare vintage Swedish semi antique woven wool rug Rollakan carpet ryamatta original 1950's mid 20th century original hand woven.

 

Sweden developed their own traditional weaving techniques and flat weave rollakans or ryas were prized posessions even from Viking times. Extraordinary examples were given as wedding gifts reflecting the status of the families to be joined.

The Kelim style of geometric design suits many interiors and this example in wool is double sided with intricate knots.

The colours used reflect tradition and also herald in the mid century modernist symplicity for elegance with practicality.

This Rya matta may be used and viewed from either side and is in excellent condition for its age.
