This beautiful vintage Scandinavian wool Rya rug bursts with warmth and energy, showcasing a rich palette of fiery orange, deep rust, golden ochre, and earthy brown. The high-pile wool texture adds a dramatic, tactile quality. At the same time, the bold central medallion design radiates outward in a sunburst-like effect, giving the piece a dynamic, almost glowing presence. Accented with subtle hints of white for contrast and finished with natural fringes, this Rya rug is a striking example of mid-century Nordic textile art, perfect for adding vibrant colour, texture, and retro charm to any interior space.
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 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 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.
