Vintage Swedish Textile Wall Art — Handwoven Tapestries & Scandinavian Folk Embroidery

Scandinavian vintage textile wall art — hand-embroidered wool wall hangings from Sweden displayed in a bright airy living room

Vintage Swedish Textile Wall Art — Handwoven Tapestries & Scandinavian Folk Embroidery

A carefully curated collection of original mid-century Swedish and Scandinavian textile wall art — handwoven Rölakan tapestries, framed needlepoint pictures, hand-embroidered wool panels, and Nordic folk wall hangings. Every piece was made by hand, in Sweden, in the golden age of Nordic domestic craft.

What we sell — and what we don't

We do not sell reproductions, new production, or mass-market wall art. Every textile in this collection was made by hand in Sweden decades ago by a generation of weavers and embroiderers that is no longer being replaced. Some patterns were produced in small numbers, so occasionally a similar design exists — but individual pieces still differ in colour, thread, tension and condition. When a specific piece sells, we cannot re-source it.

Why Scandinavian textile art is collected

Handwoven Swedish tapestries and Nordic embroidered wall art are treated as a collectible mid-century design category on the international market — not as generic vintage needlework. Comparable pieces are listed and sold on 1stDibs, Chairish, Bukowskis and LiveAuctioneers under "Scandinavian Textile Art", "Swedish Tapestry" and "Fiber Art" — typically in the USD $180 to $1,900 range for unsigned mid-century pieces.
