Blue Geometric Striped Scandinavian Rug

From an exciting new collection of gift-size pieces, this 3×6 Swedish runner is a bold new addition to the Scandinavian Collection by Rug & Kilim. Handwoven in a wool flatweave with undyed natural yarns as well, its design is inspired by Swedish minimalist designs.

On the Design: 

This new flat weave runner reinvents vintage Scandinavian Kilim in ways that both honor the Swedish minimalist aesthetic and modernize its construction. The use of undyed natural yarns, for example, lends a subtle striae with more of a sense of movement and depth—a subtle nod to Rollakan techniques in a modern fashion. This particular rug enjoys shades of blue, beige and taupe geometric stripes. 

The flatweave’s more durable, weighted body is also a hallmark of the collection, made for high-traffic and heavy-furniture spaces. This, alongside several elements detailed here, represent R&K Principal Jahanshah Nazmiyal’s hope to honor this mid-century modern aesthetic. His Scandinavian Collection is a contribution to that style, and a renaissance for its designs with more comfortable, current techniques.
