This bold vintage Scandinavian kilim bursts with energy and whimsy, showcasing a vivid magenta field animated by an eclectic array of folkloric motifs. Handwoven with fine wool, the kilim features fantastical creatures, playful animals, birds in flight, and abstract floral forms all rendered in a dynamic palette of earthy browns, pale lavender, sky blue, mustard yellow, and crisp white.
The composition is framed by scalloped and zigzag bands in soft purple and ivory, decorated with stylised blossoms and geometric patterns that echo traditional Nordic folk embroidery. The scene is rich with narrative charm, blending childlike imagination with cultural symbolism in a way that is both artistic and inviting.
This kilim is not just a decorative piece; it's a celebration of Scandinavian folk art and the storytelling tradition of textiles. Perfect as a wall tapestry, statement floor piece, or collector's item, it adds colour, character, and a touch of joyful eccentricity to any interior.
Authentic vintage and antique Scandinavian kilims are handwoven with wool. Each one is an exceptional work of art and one of a kind.
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 kilim 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 kilim.
