About the Item

Vintage Swedish Flat Weave Wool Rug Size: 6'9" × 9'6" (205 × 289 cm) Timeless in its restraint and elegance, this mid-century Swedish flat-weave rug exemplifies the Scandinavian philosophy of balanced simplicity and high functionality. Woven in the 1950s, the rug reflects the modernist design ethos of the era while retaining the handwoven artisanal character intrinsic to Scandinavian textile traditions. The composition features a subtle all-over grid of narrow vertical and horizontal striations in ivory and light gray, offering a refined, almost ethereal surface texture. The finely articulated linear field is gently framed by a wide, cool gray border that grounds the design without overwhelming it. This gentle chromatic duality—between the soft white field and the whispering gray frame—conveys a sense of calm and architectural clarity. Crafted using the traditional Rölakan flat-weave technique, this rug is reversible and durable, making it not just a visual statement but also a practical addition to everyday life. The minimal design is a hallmark of Swedish weaving from this period, focusing on tonal nuance, fine craftsmanship, and serene aesthetics over bold motifs. Whether paired with modern interiors or layered into classic design schemes, this rug offers a quiet sophistication that enhances a room without demanding attention. 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.
