A charming Finnish Tuhkimo (Cinderella) ryijy from the 1970s, featuring a beautifully detailed fairytale scene with Cinderella sitting by the fireplace while birds help with the housework.
This expressive textile artwork captures the warmth and nostalgia of classic storybook illustrations and represents the playful, narrative style that became popular in Finnish ryijy production during the 1960s and 1970s.
The rich color palette of reds, browns, greys, greens and cream tones creates a cozy atmosphere, while the hand-knotted wool pile gives the piece wonderful texture and depth.
Perfect as a wall hanging in a children's room, reading corner, cottage, or Scandinavian interior.
