Product Details
This is a beautiful Rya rug in vibrant colors from a Swedish/Finnish family estate. It measures approx 86" x 64"
The name Rya (or ryijy) has a broader meaning than one could suspect. The term comes from a village in southwest Sweden. Its direct translation is simply “rug”. However, initially, the word Rya meant a thick bed cover with a knotted pile. The same word describes the wool used for the production of those rugs.
The popularity of Ryas started to spread outside Scandinavia during the 20th century. The late 1960s, early 1970s Rya rugs took the American market by storm despite the lack of advertisement or active promotion.
