About the Item

Vintage Swedish Flat-Weave Rug by Aina Kånge, Signed "AK" Size: 5'2" × 8'2" (157 × 248 cm) This striking vintage flat-weave rug was designed by the celebrated Swedish textile artist Aina Kånge and proudly bears her woven monogram "AK" in the upper corner. A quintessential example of mid-century Swedish design, the piece reflects Kånge’s dedication to structured form and harmony in composition. The composition features a central field of horizontal striations in earthy tones—soft browns, olive greens, and muted beige—evoking the organic texture of woven bark or natural terrain. Framing this field is a wide border of pale gray-beige panels, each housing minimal yet expressive geometric motifs: stylized hash marks and stepped medallions in shades of goldenrod, moss, charcoal, and dusty blue. Slim vertical checkered bands in pale teal further segment the design, bringing a subtle sense of order and rhythm. Aina Kånge’s work is celebrated for its restrained elegance and deep connection to Swedish folk weaving traditions, and this rug exemplifies her refined yet grounded aesthetic. Woven from high-quality wool, it offers not only visual interest but also tactile richness and enduring utility. 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.
