About the Item

Vintage Swedish Handwoven Wall Tapestry “The Garden of Blekinge” — 1960s Flemish Weave Folk Art A beautiful and finely crafted vintage Swedish wall hanging from 1968, executed in the traditional Flemish weaving technique. Originating from Blekinge, a region in southern Sweden celebrated for its rich textile heritage, this exquisite piece is titled “The Garden of Blekinge” and features a lush composition of floral motifs inspired by the region’s gardens and wild meadows. Woven from high-quality wool, the tapestry displays harmonious shades of muted pinks and greens set against a dark ground, creating both depth and warmth. Decorative tassels frame each side, enhancing its handcrafted character. The intricate technique used — complex, detailed, and time-intensive — speaks to a long-standing Swedish weaving tradition passed down through generations. A true expression of Scandinavian folk art, this tapestry brings a warm, homely, and authentic charm to any interior, blending seamlessly with both rustic and modern design aesthetics.
