Björk Rug

from Design House Stockholm

björk rug

Design Lena Bergström, 2009
100% wool, leather
Made in India by Design House Stockholm

The Bjork collection is based on a weft in wool, combined with details in leather. Wool is known not only for its softness, but also for its built-in resistance to soiling thanks to its natural oils. All Bjork products are hand-woven pieces of handicraft, making every product unique.

The expression in the woven structure is inspired by the black and white trunk of the birch tree ('Björk' in Swedish) and the leather represents the inside of the bark. "The birch, a tree that can be found all over Sweden, is my inspiration for the Björk collection" says designer Lena Bergström. "The textile forms a beautiful surface in the home, as natural as stone or wood. To me Björk is like poetry, like a quiet whisper in the room."

The marbled effect in the color of Björk is created through intertwining different colored wool yarns in the weft. Björk is woven by hand and as such is a piece of craft and therefore the appearance can differ from product to product. The whiteness of the wool yarns can also differ depending on what time of year the sheep are sheared.
