The Suovilla rug was designed by Marianne Huotari for the Finnish rug company Finarte. Suovilla is a Finnish word for cottongrass, which covers the vast bog lands of the Finnish Lapland. The rug is hand-knotted from fluffy, semi-worsted New Zealand wool and it also has a touch of Moroccan Berber style. Suovilla is finished with braided ends and it makes a soft and attractive addition to the living room or elsewhere in the house.
