About the Item

Vintage Swedish flat weave rug signed by (GK) Size: 5'6" × 8'0" (167 × 243 cm) Color: beige, blue, brown, green, pink. A charming example of Swedish mid-century textile art, this vintage flatweave rug signed "GK" offers a vibrant take on Scandinavian geometric abstraction. Woven in a classic kilim technique, the composition features three prominent medallion-like motifs arranged vertically across the center, each rendered in stepped forms of salmon pink, warm beige, forest green, and navy blue. These central figures are framed by a dynamic border in olive and ochre tones, punctuated with small ivory and indigo squares that echo traditional Scandinavian folk patterns. The use of color is particularly striking: muted terracotta and sandstone shades are energized by bold contrasts of deep indigo and cool sage. The rug’s play of symmetry and asymmetry, along with its handwoven texture, adds both visual rhythm and a sense of handcrafted integrity. Woven in pure wool and preserved in excellent condition, this piece is signed in the upper-left corner with the initials "GK," likely denoting its weaver or designer. It would make a compelling focal point in modern, bohemian, or Nordic-inspired interiors, bringing warmth, authenticity, and historical charm. 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.
