This petite vintage Scandinavian Rya rug is a charming expression of Nordic folk art, delicately hand-knotted with a lush, high-pile wool texture. The design features a stylised tree of life motif blooming with abstract floral elements in a symphony of jewel tones, deep reds, mossy greens, golden yellows, and soft pinks set against a dark charcoal and taupe background. The compact size and painterly quality make it ideal for use as a wall hanging or a cosy accent piece. Rich in tradition and whimsical character, this rug brings warmth, artistry, and a touch of Scandinavian storytelling into any space.

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 an exceptionally modern design, adhering to 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 cleaned.
