Doris Leslie Blau Vintage Swedish Double Sided Runner

About the Item

Vintage Swedish Double Sided runner Size: 2'2" × 12'10" (66 × 391 cm) This exceptional vintage Swedish runner, crafted circa mid-20th century, showcases the timeless beauty and practicality of Scandinavian flatweave design. Measuring 14 feet in length and 2 feet in width, this narrow and elongated rug is both elegant and functional—perfect for hallways, transitional spaces, or as a stylish accent in modern interiors. What sets this runner apart is its double-sided construction, offering versatility with two visually distinct yet complementary designs. One side features a clean, linear motif of stepped diamond medallions arranged in rows along each edge, punctuated by subtle pairs of geometric dots in a repeating rhythm across a neutral ground. The minimalist aesthetic is highlighted by a refined palette of earthy taupes, charcoal gray, soft blacks, and stone beige—classic Swedish tones that add a grounding sophistication. The reverse side introduces a more pronounced graphic rhythm: horizontal dark bands with dotted accents alternate with lighter fields, creating a sense of modern movement and visual depth while maintaining the same serene color family. The muted tones and geometric motifs evoke the principles of Scandinavian design—simplicity, balance, and harmony with nature. Woven in durable wool, the flatweave texture emphasizes hand craftsmanship and lends itself well to both rustic and contemporary interiors. The rug’s reversible nature extends its lifespan and decorative flexibility, making it as practical as it is beautiful. 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.
