Bio:
Swedish rya carpets from the 1960s and 70s combined traditional weaving techniques with modernist, nature-inspired motifs. Many textile designers explored stylised leaves, flowers and organic forms in harmonious colour palettes, while the deep wool pile added remarkable texture and visual depth. These handwoven carpets remain highly sought after as outstanding examples of Scandinavian textile design.
