About the Item

Beautiful flat-weave Röllakan rug designed by Swedish textile artist Berit Woelfer in the 1950s. Handwoven in pure wool, this piece exemplifies the hallmarks of Scandinavian modernism—function, craftsmanship, and natural harmony. The geometric pattern features a rich, earthy palette of brown, green, beige, and ochre, framed with classic fringes. The symmetrical composition and stylized floral and arrow motifs reflect Woelfer’s distinctive take on midcentury Swedish design. A timeless piece that works equally well in minimalist, rustic, or eclectic interiors.
