Enter the Dreamscape
“At the start of Vandra Rugs, we had two dreams that still drive us today: a) to share the knowledge and appreciation of Scandinavian craftsmanship in wool and cotton rugs with a wider audience, and b) empowering women in Ukraine.”
Cia Attling, Larissa Bodén & Marie Wallenberg Olsson, Vandra Rugs founders.
Seasons by Ami Katz
Vandra Rugs is thrilled to announce the Seasons Tapestry Collection, a new series of tapestry rugs designed by Ami Katz. Inspired by the vibrant colours of the changing seasons, this collection brings the beauty of nature and mythical creatures into a space. Born from years of watercolour sketching, each piece reflects a harmonious blend of motifs and colours.
Pendula
Inspired by her encounter with an 18th-century embroidery at Parham in West Sussex, Claire Fouché created Pendula, a tapestry collection that blends the intricate details and contemporary shapes of British embroidery with the native floral motifs of South Africa.
Pietra by Ami Katz
Inspired by the iconic Malmstenbutiken in Stockholm, Pietra is a new rug collection designed by Ami Katz. Rooted in Carl Malmsten’s heritage, the design features a symmetrical chequered pattern with strategically deleted lines, offering a modern graphic touch. The collection, in various colorways, blends natural hues with a contemporary twist. Available in both an exclusive knotted pile or a röllakan version, Pietra seamlessly combines the old and new in interior design.
Miho & Berthillion
Vandra Rugs proudly introduces Miho and Berthillon Blue, exquisite creations by designer Lars Nilsson. Combining Scandinavian landscapes with urban elements, Lars introduces his signature non-repetitive stripe patterns in a herringbone weave, using natural wool, linen, and the luxurious touch of undyed sheep’s fur, giving each design the artistry and quality of couture pieces.
Sea Meadow & Velvet Check
Maja Johansson Starander’s collection for Vandra Rugs brings her vision to life, merging traditional elements with modern design to create pieces that are both functional and artistically captivating. While the Velvet check is a contemporary twist on a classic checkered pattern, striking a perfect balance between tradition and innovation Sea Meadow seamlessly blends the essence of a traditional Swedish rag rug with an original design.
Zebra
Joyn Studio, a leading interior architectural studio in Stockholm, celebrates the ongoing success of the Zebra rug, designed for Vandra Rugs. This playful yet sophisticated design adds a modern twist to traditional woven rug.
