This vintage Scandinavian Rya rug captivates with its bold, radiating starburst design rendered in striking shades of deep indigo, icy blue, teal, and ivory. The high-pile wool construction enhances its visual dynamism, creating depth and movement across the surface. The central white burst draws the eye outward through jagged, flame-like shapes, echoing cosmic or natural forces in a distinctly mid-century modern aesthetic. Finished with traditional fringes along the bottom edge, this Rya rug exemplifies Nordic textile artistry, both expressive and tactile, making it a statement piece for any contemporary or retro-inspired interior.
This vintage pile weave dates back to the time of the Scandinavian rug's greatest glory. These rugs were made over half a century ago, and due to their extraordinary quality and design, they have remained unspoiled over time.
The vintage carpet was masterfully handcrafted with the finest wool, following traditional and refined weaving techniques that date 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 the severe weather conditions.
Despite its historical heritage, the antique bears have an exceptionally modern design that aligns with the aesthetic standards of the 1950s.
Pictures are taken in natural light to portray the most realistic colours possible. Due to the handmade and preloved nature of these rugs, slight imperfections and flaws are not considered defects.
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.
Our rugs are professionally cleaned.
