In celebration of Ingrid Dessau's 100th birthday in 2023, Kasthall chose to honor the designer by reviving one of her sketches from the historical archive - Karusell dated 1959.
The result is a stunning flatwoven rug in wool—This variant in colors Blue and Green. Ingrid Dessau was a pioneer in Sweden's modern textile and design history, known for her unique perspective and exceptional talent. She worked at Kasthall between 1954 and 1978.
Since 1889, the Kasthall Design Studio in Kinna, West Sweden, has created rugs for all kinds of clients and spaces; from beautiful residences, lux yachts, and exotic hideaways to cool offices, boutique hotels and the Swedish Royal Castle.
In an increasingly standardized world in which products are mass produced, painstaking handwork is more and more rare.

They are united by a passion for the task: to create a rug that is unique, durable and irreplaceable.
Kasthall is about transforming a vision into a realistic design solution for the floor. To create a Kasthall rug, there are several ingredients; high expertise and craftsmanship, the finest natural materials in the world, and exceptional design understanding. Every step and every rug is guided by two motivations: perfection and passion.
Ingrid Dessau was a pioneer in Sweden's modern textile and design history. As a designer at Kasthall between 1954 and 1978, she shaped the company's visual language and laid the foundation for its modern design tradition.
With roots in southern Swedish folk craft and a background in textile studies, Dessau designed patterns for rugs, fabrics and embroidery, often inspired by nature such as flowers, leaves, water and stones, translated into modern textile patterns.
At Kasthall's factory in Kinna, she combined traditional craft knowledge with a curiosity for new weaving techniques, exploring how color, pattern and structure could create expressive yet balanced surfaces.
