Guldslottet 75 x 480 cm
Vintage knotted rya rug designed by Marianne Richter in 1959. Handwoven in 1965 at Märta Måås-Fjetterström AB, Båstad, Sweden by Gertrud Risberg. Marked AB MMF and MR (artist’s initials).
The rug is recorded in the Märta Måås-Fjetterström archive under inventory number 22879 and comes with a certificate of authenticity.
Guldslottet was one of Marianne Richter’s personal favorites. This rug was a special commission from a Swedish sculptor, transforming the design into a long, exuberant runner—woven only once to date.
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.
