Nejlikan, röd mörk 220 x 272 cm
Vintage gobeläng flatweave rug designed by Barbro Nilsson in 1950. Handwoven at Märta Måås-Fjetterström AB, Båstad, Sweden. Marked AB MMF and BN (artist’s initials).
This rug is currently on display in our Stockholm showroom and comes with a certificate of authenticity.
Bold and expressive, Nejlikan is a technically challenging piece to weave. Despite its complexity, it has frequently been made in monumental sizes. The surface comes to life with rhythm and variation, created through the interplay of warm and cool tones within the same color family.
MATERIALS AND CARE
The rug is hand-knotted in wool on a linen warp. Wool is naturally stain-resistant and should not be washed too frequently, as this can strip the natural oils that protect the fibers.
To ensure even wear, rotate the rug periodically. Regular vacuuming is beneficial, but avoid vacuuming the braided edges and refrain from using a vacuum with rotating brushes.
MADE-TO-ORDER
This is a vintage rug ready for immediate delivery; however, it can also be woven as made-to-order by the skilled artisans at the studio in Båstad, Sweden. Please contact us for further information and assistance.
