Modern Swedish Flat-Weave Rug Inspired by Marta Mass Fjetterstrom Design

Offered by: Doris Leslie Blau Rugs

Description
This Swedish rug was inspired by the works of the Grand Dame of Scandinavian rug design – Marta Maas-Fjetterstrom. Its main field carries an allover grid of serrated diamonds within diamonds and star motifs. This energizing pattern is embraced by a border also adorned with diamond motifs. The color palette combines gold, green and beige. The composition is finished with a fringe at the shorter edges of the rug. The rug was carefully hand-woven of high-quality wool in accordance with traditional techniques. Due to such an execution, it is unique and durable. Provided a minimal amount of care, it will serve for many years without any signs of wear. Mid-century Swedish inspired rug made in India. Doris Leslie Blau carries an exceptional collection of modern rugs inspired by mid-century Swedish designs. We stay true to the legendary tradition of Scandinavian craftsmanship by hand-weaving flatweave wool Rölakan rugs and wool pile Rya rugs that are very close in looks and feel to the original ones. Contemporary hand-made rugs are a bridge throughout history, they are the fruit of the constant evolution of the weaving craft that has accompanied men since the dawn of civilization.
