Ingrid is a woven rug made from the finest wool. The pattern is reminiscent of knitted sweaters from the far north of Scandinavia, for a look which reflects both rural, homely roots and city life with the promise of new beginnings. Ingrid is now being relaunched in new colours inspired by Sweden’s 18th century cultural heyday under King Gustav III, and the attractive colour-scheme of traditional Swedish churches: light, hazy colours with silver tones. Ingrid has been part of our range since 2008, and is available in 12 colours. Ingrid is also ideal as an exclusive wall to wall carpet.
Ingrid in Stripes:
In preparation for our 125th anniversary, Kasthall has developed Ingrid in Stripes, inspired by the rag rugs which have been used on Swedish floors since the mid-19th Century. Used fabrics from clothes and household items were cut into long ribbons which were then woven into striped, multi-coloured rugs. In the 1960s and 1970s, domestic arts and crafts enthusiasts started producing rag rugs with more distinct patterns and designs. Ingrid in Stripes lends a modern expression to traditional Swedish weaving, creating something which is equally at home in a city apartment or in a rural cottage. Ingrid in Stripes is available in 5 colourways.
