About the Item
The carpet ‘Kungsmattan,’ designed by Aina Kånge and produced by Tabergs Yllefabrik in Sweden during the 1950s, represents a compelling example of mid-century Scandinavian textile design. The rug features a bold geometric pattern consisting of intersecting black and white lines set against a deep red background. This contrast creates a dynamic and visually engaging surface, while the framing edges in subtle neutral tones provide balance and definition to the overall composition.
Crafted through hand-tufting, the carpet is made from high-quality wool, noted for its durability and soft texture. The pile is thick and evenly distributed, contributing both to the rug’s resilience and its tactile comfort. The rich colors remain well preserved, reflecting the superior dyeing and weaving techniques used by Tabergs Yllefabrik, a producer known for its expertise in wool textiles and commitment to quality during the mid-20th century.
The condition of the carpet is very good for its vintage status, showing minimal signs of wear. The edges are intact and the pile remains full, indicating careful maintenance and use over time. This preservation enhances the carpet’s appeal as an authentic mid-century textile piece.
With dimensions of 200 cm in width and 135 cm in depth (approximately 78.7 by 53.1 inches), the ‘Kungsmattan’ is suitable for a variety of interior spaces, offering both visual impact and functional warmth. Its combination of geometric design, quality materials, and craftsmanship situates it firmly within the tradition of Scandinavian modern rugs.
