Doris Leslie Blau Midcentury Swedish Flat Woven Rug by Ingegerd Silow

About the Item

Midcentury Swedish red flat woven rug by Ingegerd Silow Size: 6'3" × 9'10" (190 × 299 cm) A masterful example of mid-century Scandinavian textile design, this vintage flat-woven rug by celebrated Swedish designer Ingegerd Silow captures the spirit of functional elegance and folk-inspired artistry. Woven in rich hues of burnt red, burgundy, silver-gray, and icy turquoise, the rug features a bold geometric border composed of staggered diamond motifs. These shapes form a striking contrast against the subtly variegated red field, which reveals delicate striations of plum, orange, and violet upon close inspection—an effect achieved through masterful yarn blending and dye work. The symmetrical design—with mirrored border patterns running along all sides—creates a sense of rhythm and containment that frames the central space beautifully. The woven texture and crisp geometry are hallmarks of Swedish "rölakan" weaving tradition, which Silow helped to popularize internationally. Handwoven in high-quality wool, the rug showcases an understated but richly layered palette that elevates its simple forms into a refined and sophisticated statement. Its symmetrical composition and vibrant warmth make it especially suited to modern, minimalist, or mid-century interiors seeking a grounding textile element with heritage appeal. Rich in heritage and artistry, this handmade rug exemplifies the high standards of Doris Leslie Blau’s curated pieces. With a wide range of prices, Doris Leslie Blau makes exceptional rugs accessible to collectors and designers alike.
