This vintage Swedish Rya rug is a richly textured wool textile featuring a bold geometric design in deep burgundy, accented by soft peach, emerald green, and subtle hints of golden and orange speckles. The central motif is composed of a stacked diamond pattern, symmetrically aligned to create a rhythmic, almost meditative visual flow, framed by a striped border in earthy tones. Hand-knotted from pure wool, this Scandinavian Rya rug exemplifies the mid-century tradition of long-pile Nordic rugs that were both functional and decorative, offering warmth and artistic character. Ideal for collectors and interior enthusiasts, this vintage Swedish Rya rug brings cosy texture and authentic Nordic charm to any space.
The vintage carpet was masterfully hand-crafted with the finest wool, following traditional and refined weaving techniques, and dates back to the Middle Ages.
Its style, Rya, was developed centuries ago in Scandinavia to protect the people, especially the mariners living off the sea, from severe weather conditions.
Despite its historical heritage, the antique bears have an exceptionally modern design that is settled in the aesthetic standards of the 50s.

Our rugs are professionally restored, and the fringes secured, ensuring many more years of life. Additionally, we recommend using a rug pad with a grippy back to keep your rug in place and to smooth out any wrinkles that may have occurred during shipping. Using a rug pad will also safeguard your carpet from deterioration and, therefore, extend the life of your rug.
