About the Item

Vintage Swedish Flat Woven Rug Size: 9'1" × 12'0" (276 × 365 cm) This exquisite vintage Swedish flat weave rug, is a striking example of mid-20th-century Scandinavian textile design. Woven entirely from wool, the rug showcases the enduring qualities of natural materials and artisanal craftsmanship that define Swedish weaving traditions. The design consists of a rhythmic geometric composition featuring a field of nested diamonds framed by a wide border. The color palette is a harmonious blend of muted taupe, sandy beige, earthy peach, rich navy, and soft coral-pink. Each diamond encloses various motifs—from stylized blossoms to abstract medallions and angular tree-like figures—which evoke the essence of Nordic folk art while maintaining a modernist sensibility. The rug's symmetrical layout and precise forms give it an architectural balance, while the subtle tonal shifts within the weft introduce visual depth and warmth. Vertical linear accents in the border help frame the central field and accentuate the rug’s structured yet dynamic composition. This piece is not only decorative but also deeply rooted in the Bauhaus-inspired functionalism that permeated Swedish design in the 20th century. Ideal for both traditional and contemporary interiors, this rug exemplifies the fusion of minimalism and cultural richness that makes Swedish textiles so enduringly collectible. Whether used as a centerpiece in a living room or a stylish grounding element in a modern setting, it is a testament to the timeless appeal of Scandinavian artistry. 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.
