Vintage Swedish Flat Woven by Kerstin Persson

Offered by: Doris Leslie Blau Rugs

Description
A mid-century Swedish flat-weave rug by Kerstin Persson with woven initials 'KP' at a lower corner. The main field features geometric shapes of crosses and squares in blue, green, and aqua-blue colors. The solid green border frames this composition and the fringe on the rug's top and bottom parts, enhancing its rustic charm. The Northern European lifestyle focuses on cultivating a life that is mindful and joyful. A lack of clutter and emphasis on highly functional, streamlined items lends to this attitude. Organic shapes and natural materials are prominent elements of Scandinavian design. It stems from a culture of living in small rural communities that were generally isolated, requiring reliance on natural materials.
