About the Item
A Contemporary Swedish Hand-Knotted Pile Rug in Blue with Abstract Floral Motif by Doris Leslie Blau
Size: 14'10" × 23'8" (452 × 721 cm)
Inspired by the visual language of traditional Scandinavian folk art and reimagined through a modern lens, this oversized contemporary Swedish rug exemplifies the finest in minimalist design and artisanal technique. Hand-knotted in India from luxurious wool, the rug embraces the iconic Swedish aesthetic with a lively yet controlled palette of blues, creams, soft pinks, greens, and touches of plum and navy.
The field is defined by alternating diagonal stripes of tonal blue, forming a sophisticated chevron layout that draws the eye inward. Superimposed on this rhythmical ground are abstracted floral motifs composed of pixel-like knots, referencing the geometry of nature with a playful sense of abstraction. Each motif—whether a cluster of blossoms, a dotted line, or a square outline—appears almost like embroidery floating across a woven canvas, lending the piece both movement and charm.
The palette is refreshingly airy, dominated by icy and denim blues interspersed with bouquets of ivory, blush, sage, and violet. The rug’s texture is enhanced by its lush pile, creating a soft surface that offers both comfort and visual dimension. The top and bottom borders, formed by a tight dot-and-stripe weave, neatly frame the expansive field, lending structure without detracting from the dynamic interior.
An embodiment of Nordic modernity married with fine Indian craftsmanship, this rug is perfect for collectors and design connoisseurs seeking to infuse interiors with pattern, color, and understated whimsy. Its oversized format and balanced design make it ideal for anchoring a wide range of spaces—from eclectic lofts to minimalist residences.
Offered by Doris Leslie Blau, a premier source for vintage and antique rugs, this piece is an authentic example of post-war Swedish weaving—valued for its craftsmanship, design clarity, and enduring style. Doris Leslie Blau offers a wide range of pricing tailored to collectors, designers, and discerning homeowners—from accessible vintage gems to exclusive investment-level pieces.
