About the Item
Mid-20th century Swedish flatweave wool rug by Alice Wallebäck - Woven signature at one end AW
Size: 5'6" × 7'10" (167 × 238 cm)
This delightful vintage Swedish flat-weave rug is the work of renowned textile artist Alice Wallebäck, whose initials “AW” are monogrammed in the lower corner of the design. Wallebäck’s signature style—marked by a harmony of geometric structure and organic motif—is beautifully expressed in this mid-century piece.
The central field features a warm caramel-brown ground decorated with a rhythmic grid of stylized floral medallions. Rendered in creamy ivory with softly contrasting centers in rose pink, golden ochre, and fresh green, the flowers evoke a sense of understated joy and natural elegance.
Surrounding this floral tableau is a pale cream border that alternates between graphic blossoms and bold abstract motifs resembling Nordic runes or architectural forms. These elements contribute to the overall symmetry and balance while referencing the heritage of Scandinavian folk art and weaving traditions.
Woven in wool using the traditional Swedish röllakan technique, this flat-weave rug is not only reversible and durable but also richly textured. Its soft, earthy palette—featuring tones of taupe, terracotta, charcoal, moss, and gold—makes it a versatile addition to a range of interior styles, from bohemian and rustic to minimal and modern.
With its unique pattern and refined colors, this vintage rug reflects the impeccable taste of Doris Leslie Blau’s selections.Offering both rare, high-end pieces and more accessible options, Doris Leslie Blau presents rugs in a wide spectrum of prices.
