About the Item

Mid-20th Century Swedish Pile Rug by Martha Ghan Size: 4.9" × 11.2" (144 × 340 cm) The vintage Swedish pile rug by Märta Gahn, crafted circa 1955, exemplifies the harmonious blend of simplicity, functionality, and natural inspiration characteristic of mid-20th-century Scandinavian design. Measuring approximately 57 inches by 134 inches (144.78 cm by 340.36 cm), this hand-knotted wool rug features a vibrant pink field interwoven with shades of lavender, purple, yellow, white, and beige. The design incorporates geometric and animal motifs, creating a composition that is both whimsical and elegant. The rug bears the woven initials "MG" in one corner, signifying its authenticity as a creation of Märta Gahn. It remains in excellent original condition, consistent with its age. This particular rug, with its vibrant color palette and intricate design, serves as a testament to Gahn's mastery in textile art. Its enduring appeal lies in its ability to complement a variety of interior styles, from traditional to contemporary, while adding a touch of Scandinavian charm. Märta Gahn (1891–1973) was a prominent Swedish textile artist known for her innovative contributions to Scandinavian modernism. Her work often featured a fusion of traditional motifs with modernist aesthetics, resulting in designs that were both rooted in heritage and forward-looking. Gahn's rugs are celebrated for their artistic merit and craftsmanship, making them sought-after pieces in the realm of vintage textiles. This rug is part of the esteemed Doris Leslie Blau collection, renowned for its curated selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs. Doris Leslie Blau offers a vast selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs in a wide range of styles, materials, and price points, making fine textile art accessible to both collectors and designers alike.
