Swedish Flat Weave

A bold chevron composition built from mitered diagonal stripes that converge toward the center in an X formation, framed by a wide outer border of red, orange, and pink diagonal bands mirroring the same chevron logic. A narrow ivory band separates the outer border from the inner field, where the diagonals shift to a darker palette of charcoal, plum, and warm brown. The lower corners carry woven inscriptions, "10" at left and "KLH" at right, set directly into the ground.

Swedish Flat Weave

The field is organized into a grid of stepped, key-patterned squares, each nested medallion built up from tan and ivory frames around a solid blue center, all set on a dark charcoal-gray ground. A narrow plain ivory border frames the repeating grid, giving the whole surface a strict checkerboard regularity broken only by slight variations in the blue tones from square to square. A small woven inscription reading "SH" appears in the lower left corner.
