About the Item

Vintage Swedish flat woven rug Size: 6'0" × 9'9" (182 × 297 cm) Exuding understated elegance and classic Scandinavian restraint, this vintage Swedish flat-woven rug from the mid-20th century offers a sophisticated take on geometric abstraction. Woven entirely by hand, the rug features a rhythmic grid of vertical rectangles, each with subtly jagged edges that playfully disrupt the symmetry and create a dynamic visual texture. The palette is richly nuanced yet soothing—layers of denim blue, slate gray, warm taupe, muted ochre, and soft plum are woven together using a blend of colored wool threads, resulting in a beautifully striated effect. This mélange of tones gives the rug an almost painterly quality, allowing it to shift in appearance depending on the light and angle of view. Framed by a wide blue border and finished with braided fringes, the rug’s craftsmanship is evident from both the front and the reverse, showcasing a tight, flat weave that emphasizes durability as much as design. The handwoven wool construction ensures a soft underfoot feel while providing long-lasting strength for daily use. 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.
