About the Item
Vintage Swedish Flat Woven by Agda Osterberg
Size: 4'6" × 6'10" (137 × 208 cm)
This vintage Swedish flat-weave rug by renowned textile artist Agda Österberg is a quintessential example of Scandinavian modernism expressed through textile art. Woven in the 1950s, the piece showcases Österberg’s signature balance between geometry, subtle color, and softness of form.
The rug features a softly checkered central field composed of cream and beige squares, exuding understated elegance. Framing this minimalist center is a charming border punctuated with small green leaf-like motifs and vertical panels in warm, earthy tones of oat, wheat, honey, and sienna. Interspersed among these are delicate pops of pastel blue, rose, and white, arranged in a rhythmic floral-dot pattern that evokes the look of blooming buds.
The handwoven construction in wool gives the rug a lovely textural richness while maintaining the flat-woven lightness typical of Swedish rollakans. Fringed edges add a tactile finishing touch.
Subtle and serene, this piece carries both graphic clarity and a natural softness, making it an ideal accent for modern, mid-century, or minimalist interiors. It exemplifies Österberg’s gift for translating traditional Swedish folk design into a refined, contemporary idiom.
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.
