Harper 450 Golden Ash
Made by Kasthall
Designed by Ellinor Eliasson
Harper is a study in quiet precision. Designed by Ellinor Eliasson for Kasthall, it is woven in wool with a linen warp, a combination that gives the surface its characteristic thinness and the faint, rhythmic texture of a fine tweed. The weave reads differently in varied light, shifting between flat and dimensional without ever demanding attention.
The Golden Ash colorway sits at the meeting point of warm and neutral. It carries the softness of natural wool pigmentation rather than the flatness of dye, lending the rug a depth that holds well against both pale Scandinavian interiors and richer, more layered rooms.

Eliasson's approach to textile design favors the intelligence of structure over surface ornament. Harper reflects that sensibility fully: the pattern is the weave itself, nothing added, nothing superfluous.

Frequently Asked Questions
What materials are used in the Kasthall Harper rug?
The Harper rug is constructed from wool with a linen warp. This combination produces a notably thin profile and a fine, structured surface with the tactile character of a woven textile rather than a traditional pile rug.
Who designed the Harper rug for Kasthall?
Harper was designed by Ellinor Eliasson, a Swedish textile designer whose work consistently prioritizes weave structure and material integrity over decorative surface treatment. Her collaboration with Kasthall reflects a shared commitment to craft-driven, understated design.
Can the Harper 450 be ordered in a custom size?
Yes. The Harper rug is available as a made-to-order piece, allowing for custom dimensions. This makes it well suited for residential projects, hospitality commissions, and architectural interiors where standard sizes are not sufficient.
How does a wool and linen warp rug differ from a standard wool rug?
The linen warp provides structural stability and contributes to the rug's flat, refined drape, while wool forms the visible weft that gives the surface its warmth and texture. The result is a rug that is thinner and more tailored in appearance than conventional wool constructions.
Where are Kasthall rugs made?
Kasthall rugs are produced in Kinna, Sweden, where the company has been weaving textiles since 1889. Production remains centered on traditional Scandinavian weaving techniques executed with contemporary precision.
