Description
Very finely antique woven geometric Scandinavian flat weave. Structure, design, and very good colors combine to make a very appealing work of textile arts. Possibly of southern Norwegian origin (rutevev). Very likely 19th century. Wool is very fine. This is an outstanding example of Scandinavian folk art. Note: Design similarities exist between this piece and certain Anatolian (including sofreh) works. For a brief survey of this concept see: turkotek.com - "The Anatolian-Scandinavian connection". Measures: 54" X 54"
Condition
Very good. Some old repairs - repairs to the field appear very good, those to edges appear less so.
