This vintage Scandinavian Rya wool rug is a minimalist masterpiece, radiating warmth and vibrancy through its rich crimson red hue. Crafted with a thick, luxurious pile typical of traditional Rya weaving, the rug offers a velvety texture underfoot that invites comfort and cosiness. Its monochromatic surface, subtly variegated by the handwoven fibres, adds depth and a soft visual dynamism despite its solid colour. Rooted in Nordic design traditions yet perfectly suited to modern interiors, this bold and timeless piece brings both texture and drama to any space, whether used as a floor covering or a wall-hung textile statement.
This vintage pile weave dates back to the time of the Scandinavian rugs' greatest glory. These rugs were made over half a century ago, and to this day, they remain unspoilt by time due to their extraordinary quality and design.
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.
