This bold vintage Scandinavian Rya rug is a striking mid-century textile masterpiece, radiating with vibrant energy and tactile richness. Its lush, high-pile wool features a mesmerising circular burst design in vivid shades of green, yellow, and lime, creating a visual effect reminiscent of sunbursts or abstract botanical forms.
Hand-knotted with thick wool yarns, the rug offers a luxurious softness underfoot and a dynamic presence that brings both warmth and movement to any interior. The saturated colour palette and retro-modern pattern reflect the iconic 1960s–70s Scandinavian design aesthetic, artful, playful, and expressive.
Ideal as a statement piece for modern or eclectic spaces, this Rya rug blends comfort with artistic flair, making it a standout addition to any floor or wall.
The vintage carpet was masterly hand executed with the finest wool following traditional and refined weaving techniques, reaching the Middle Ages.
Its style, Rya, was developed centuries ago in Scandinavia to protect the people, especially mariners living off the sea, from severe weather conditions.
Despite its historical heritage, the antique bears an exceptionally modern design, adhering to the aesthetic standards of the 1950s.
