About the Item

79030 Vintage Swedish Scandinavian Rollakan Rug, 03'10 x 06'06. This handwoven wool vintage Swedish Scandinavian rollakan rug is a captivating example of artistry that bridges tradition and innovation in Scandinavian textile design. The Swedish rollakan rug's geometric layout is dominated by alternating ochre yellow panels, interspersed with striking blue star motifs encased in brown-bordered frames. These stars, traditionally associated with protection and guidance, are rendered in a way that evokes celestial constellations, giving the Swedish flatweave rug a sense of depth and symbolism deeply rooted in Scandinavian folklore. Each star is surrounded by motifs in complementary tones of soft reds and blues, creating a dynamic interplay that recalls the movement of celestial bodies through the night sky. The vibrant color palette of the Swedish rollakan rug, with earthy and warm tones, harmonizes effortlessly to exude warmth and energy, typical of mid-20th-century Scandinavian design sensibilities. The deliberate placement of color and form is further accentuated by the border's checker-like geometric pattern, which frames the central motif beautifully. The expertly woven textile is a testament to the Swedish weaving tradition, known for its precision and meticulous craftsmanship. The symmetrical composition suggests careful planning and a deep understanding of balance and form. Its pattern, while distinctly modernist, draws inspiration from age-old Swedish design motifs, creating a timeless piece that would suit both contemporary and traditional interiors. Adding an air of mystery and authenticity is the signature mark in the lower corner, showcasing initials that may read "AMB" or "BMB." This detail serves as a reminder of the individuality and artistic pride of the weaver, leaving a mark of authenticity and legacy upon the textile. This Swedish masterpiece, with its vibrant tones and historical echoes, is more than just a floor covering—it is a woven narrative steeped in tradition, beauty, and the storytelling of Scandinavian design heritage. Signature Lower Corner Initials AMB or BMB. Abrash. Handwoven wool. Made in Sweden. Measures: 03'10 x 06'06. Pile Height: 0.11 of an inch. Date: 1950's. Mid-20th Century.
