About the Item

Vintage Swedish Flat Woven Rug Size: 4'7" × 6'8" (139 × 203 cm) A striking example of Scandinavian modernism, this vintage Swedish flatweave rug captures the essence of mid-century textile artistry with clarity and confidence. Rendered in a refreshing palette of cool indigo, cobalt, denim, and slate blue, punctuated by earthy terracotta and walnut brown squares, the design presents a kinetic interplay of color and shape. The composition features an array of overlapping and tessellated squares arranged in a seemingly random yet harmonious rhythm across the surface. The grid-like layout is softened by slight irregularities in form, giving the pattern a hand-drawn spontaneity while maintaining visual balance. The geometric forms appear to float against the vivid blue field, creating a sensation of depth and movement. Handwoven from durable wool, the rug’s flatwoven construction provides a smooth, matte texture ideal for both functional use and aesthetic display. The subtle tonal variations within each square attest to the artisan's mastery of shading and blending, a hallmark of high-quality Swedish craftsmanship. This piece is a perfect statement for interiors seeking a fusion of form and function—its minimalism suits modern and contemporary settings, while its rich coloration adds warmth and presence. 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.
