Swedish Tapestry Rug or Kilim, circa 1920Initially this classic early modern Swedish tapestry rug or Rollakan appears primarily of variegated tone-on-tone striations. But a closer look reveals the use of repeating small curvilinear motifs in soft yellow that barely show up against the tan ground. The subtlety of color and design in enhanced by the soft texture of the lovely wool.
