Provenance

The Lennart Heyman (1918 – 1974) collection. Lennart Heyman was trained in oriental rugs from his father's wholesale firm Heyman & Olesen in Stockholm. Heyman was a collector and dealer of both antiques and oriental carpets and took assignments as a valuer of carpets in Sweden and abroad, including for Sotheby's and Christie's in London. The business premises were located at Birger Jarlsgatan 3 until his death.
