Home-woven, solid rag rug based on a model from the first part of the 20th century. Woven with colored warp in stripes, which is why the pattern effect in the finished carpet is checkered. An unusually decorative rug that fits in both finer rooms and simpler ones.

“Sister Inge” (1925-1998) was surnamed Lund and was a Danish-born district nurse who worked mainly in Skåne. Inge Lund was of the old stock, washed and washed dishes in soap and decorated her beautiful homes with a mixture of inherited, recycled and newly composed with a skill that would make any modern interior designer green with envy. We borrowed this rug from her holiday apartment in Järvsö, Sweden, and with it we found another example of her unerring sense of recycling (old cotton clothes), pattern (19th century) and color (rich empire) in something as simple as an “ordinary rag rug”.
