EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite Ryijy or Rya carpet hails from Finland, dating back to the early 18th century. The exact creator of this masterpiece remains unknown, adding to its allure and mystery. Ryijy carpets are a distinctive form of Finnish folk art, characterized by their intricate geometric patterns and vibrant colors. This particular carpet is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Finland during the eighteenth century. It is woven in a wool weft-faced warp rib plain weave with supplementary wrapping wefts, forming a cut pile through a technique known as Ghiordes knots. The resulting texture is soft and inviting, making it an ideal addition to any space. The Ryijy carpet showcases a stunning array of colors, from bold reds and blues to muted greens and yellows. Each hue is woven with meticulous precision, resulting in a visually stunning composition that is both timeless and modern. The patterns on the carpet are geometric and intricate, reflecting the deep-rooted connection between Finnish art and nature. The carpet's intricate design and beautiful colors make it a prized possession in any art collection. It is a testament to the skill and creativity of the unknown weaver, who crafted this work of art over 300 years ago. Today, it is preserved and cherished at the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and delight visitors from around the world.
