The rug was made in the post-war period, when there was a shortage of pretty much everything, so when Vibeke Klint was lucky enough to get a small batch of Norwegian wool, she wove a rug for her mother. The rug has been in the family’s ownership ever since, and is today with Vibeke Klint’s eldest son, Peter Klint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the first time since then, the rug is now available 4 standard sizes, a runner and 3 rectangular sizes.  The rug is part of NORDICMODERN’s collection of original Vibeke Klint rug designs, selected in close collaboration with the Klint family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe VK-5 rug is woven in double-woven New Zealand wool, which makes it extra soft and comfortable. A rug woven in solid yarns that contain a lot of lanolin, which makes it dirt-repellent, so that it can also lie in the busier areas of the home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe VK-5 was the very first rug that Vibeke Klint designed, consisting of small square pieces in white and black that are connected all over the surface, a dynamic checker-board design, it is both elegant and modern, but most of all so timeless, that it is now put into production for the next generation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandwoven Vibeke Klint rug designed in the 1940s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterials: Weft in New Zealand wool, warp in cotton with a 4 cm folded white edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTechnique: Double flat weave.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eThe rug is reversible and can withstand even heavy use. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e100% New Zealand wool has a high lanolin content, making the rug naturally resistant to dirt.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in the black and white color combination in four standard sizes\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeasurement: 2.5' x 8'\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NORDICMODERN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48975546646780,"sku":"NM-016028","price":1410.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0084\/6492\/4772\/files\/VK-5_runner_skarp_transparent_V3.jpg?v=1776373558","url":"https:\/\/313designmarket.com\/products\/nordicmodern-vibeke-klint-rug-vk-5-black-white-80-x-240-cm","provider":"313 Design Market","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
