About the Item

Rollakan rugs are characterized by their intricate geometric patterns and vibrant colors.

Immerse yourself in the gentle embrace of timeless Scandinavian Modern style intertwined with the cozy essence of Hygge. Nestled within the fibers of this vintage Swedish rollakan rug, designed by the Scandinavian textile artist Asa Akerlund, lies a narrative of comfort and warmth. Each thread whispers stories of simplicity and serenity, inviting you to surrender to its tranquil embrace.
As you gaze upon its surface, a symphony of soft pastel hues dances before your eyes, like the hushed whispers of a winter's breeze. The geometric intricacy of the design, meticulously crafted with care and precision, unveils a tableau of quiet sophistication. At its heart, a celestial medallion emerges, adorned with cross motifs that seem to float upon a canvas of serene light blue, beckoning you to lose yourself in its serene embrace.
Tracing the edges of this masterpiece, an intricate border unfolds, echoing the gentle cadence of cruciform motifs found within the expanse of its field. Known affectionately as "Ljustero," this pattern, conceived by Asa Akerlund for Axeco Svenska AB, carries within it the essence of its creator's vision. And there, nestled in the corner, the initials "AA" woven with care, a testament to the artisanal mastery woven into every fiber of this rollakan rug.
