Size: 2.5 x 1.10 ft.

Origin: Scandinavia

Circa: 1970s

Material: Pure Wool

This vintage Scandinavian wool textile is a handwoven flatweave that showcases the region’s love for bold geometric patterns and harmonious colour balance. The design is structured in horizontal bands of alternating colours: deep navy, soft blue, earthy red, natural beige, and green, enlivened by rows of small triangular motifs that echo traditional Nordic weaving styles. At the centre, a striking diamond medallion in layered tones of red, blue, green, and ivory anchors the composition, lending the piece a strong symmetrical rhythm. Woven from natural wool with a tight flatweave construction and finished with fringes on both ends, this textile reflects both utility and artistry, typical of mid-20th-century Scandinavian craftsmanship. Its vibrant yet earthy palette and timeless design make it a versatile decorative rug or wall hanging that embodies the warmth and modern simplicity of Nordic style.

Authentic vintage and antique Scandinavian textiles 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, slight imperfections and flaws are not defects.

Our textiles are professionally restored, and the fringes secured, ensuring many more years of life.

Our textiles are professionally cleaned.

It’s 1990 all over again!

In the early 1990’s, my wife I were obsessed with hand woven, vegetable dyed Turkish carpets from Azeri/Woven Legends. We spent so much time at ABC Carpet & Home in NYC, we became good friends with the head rug buyer!! We haven’t purchased a rug in years, but I found a wonderful Woven Legends carpet at Shopvintagerugs and bought myself an early birthday present. The rug was shipped from Pakistan on Monday, made its way to Dubai, then Boston, Memphis and finally arrived to us today. I couldn’t be happier!
