This Swedish tapestry kilim from the 1970s is a hand-woven wool wall hanging depicting a picturesque street scene with distinctive half-timbered houses. The design features a palette of warm, earthy tones: beige and light brown form the background of the street and facades, while deep burgundy and forest green highlight architectural details and window shutters. The house roofs are rendered in a vivid, brick-red hue, complemented by a sky-blue background with white clouds. The tapestry has a dense, looped pile with a matte finish, creating a soft, textured surface. Its vertical proportions emphasize the rhythmic composition of the street. Three sturdy wool loops at the top allow for easy wall mounting, and the edges are neatly finished. The overall condition is very good—there are no visible damages, stains, or signs of wear, and the wool fibers retain their original color vibrancy.
This textile carries the quiet voice of 1970s Swedish craftsmanship, drawing on local architectural motifs and folk tradition. The tapestry tells the story of a small Nordic town, where houses—reduced to simple blocks—line a peaceful street, their hues evoking the gentle pace of a Scandinavian summer. The
