Swedish Kilim with Tree of Life & Peacocks | 3'6" x 5'2" | c. 1950s
Details
A rare mid-century kilim from Sweden featuring the highly desirable Tree of Life composition paired with mirrored peacock figures—an uncommon dual motif that enhances its collector appeal. The handwoven construction in raw wool reflects the Bauhaus-influenced Scandinavian craft revival of the post-war era. This piece balances folk storytelling with modernist geometry, its palette of soft sapphire, salmon, and alpine green rooted in vegetal dye tradition.
