About the Item
Vintage Swedish Blue Flat Woven rug by Ingegerd Silow
Size: 5'6" × 7'5" (167 × 226 cm)
A striking example of Scandinavian modernist textile artistry, this vintage Swedish flat-weave rug titled "Torvalla" was designed by renowned mid-century textile artist Ingegerd Silow. Crafted circa mid-20th century, the rug displays Silow's signature balance of color, symmetry, and geometric precision.
The composition is framed by a wide border hosting alternating medallions of stylized roundels in soft blush pink and amber ochre, interspersed with rectilinear motifs in shades of denim blue and muted gray. These elements sit against a pale ivory backdrop, lending the border an airy, luminous quality. At the heart of the piece lies a serene field of cerulean blue, segmented by delicate vertical white dash lines that enhance the sense of structure without disrupting the soothing rhythm.
The palette is both lively and refined, combining cool tones with warm highlights for a harmonious visual dialogue. The use of natural wool and the traditional rollakan weaving technique not only grounds the design in Swedish handcraft heritage but also lends the rug a tactile, durable quality.
Measuring approximately 8 x 5 feet, "Torvalla" is an elegant and timeless example of Swedish design, embodying the mid-century ethos of functional beauty. It would serve equally well as a grounding element in a minimalist interior or as a vibrant highlight in a layered, eclectic space.
This exquisite rug is part of the diversified Doris Leslie Blau selections, renowned for its curated selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs. Doris Leslie Blau offers a vast selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs in a wide range of styles, materials, and price points, making fine textile art accessible to both collectors and designers alike.
