Designed by Emma Olbers 2018 for the Old Library in Stockholm National Museum.
"Biblioteket" means "the library" in Swedish. This hand-knotted rug features a design that combines Emma's initial sketches of the Old Library. The design includes three arches and three large windows at the top, the middle rows of books on the old bookshelf, and the newly laid oak parquet at the bottom.
Biblioteket is a finely hand-knotted Tibetan Thin with a mix of 50% (New Zealand) wool and 50% Tencel™. Tencel™ is a natural fiber from fast-growing forests and is 95% biodegradable.
The Tibetan Thin knotted rugs have the same type of knot as the Tibetan rugs, but they are slightly thinner with a shorter pile and more delicate cut. They are very well suited for design patterns and color mixes.

Originally founded as a gallery — where furniture was treated as an object of art, not a product — Asplund grew into one of the defining names in contemporary Swedish design and interiors.
