High/Low/Medium: Geometric Scandinavian Röllakan Rugs
In my dreams I have a blue-green flat-woven rug by one of Scandinavia’s iconic textile designers. An original by Ingegerd Silow, Marianne Richter, Maja Andersson-Wirde, Barbro Nilsson, Judith Johansson, and other pioneering women? Priceless (but, actually, way out of my price range). Funny enough, I recently noticed a similar offering at Anthropologie, without the backstory but at a fraction of the price. Have a look:
