Rogaland style of rosemaling: back to styles
In Rogaland, flowers are more important than scrolls and leaves. Tulips, stylized roses, 4 and 6-petal flowers, and the daisy pull-out are used. Symmetrical design, opaque color on dark backgrounds, and the use of cross-hatching, dots and teardrops characterize Rogaland.
