About the Item
Vintage Swedish High-Low Pile Wool Rug
Size: 5'4" × 11'0" (164 × 335 cm)
This striking mid-century Swedish rug masterfully showcases a unique high-low knotting technique that adds depth and tactile richness to its minimalist composition. The rug features a soft, harmonious palette of warm ivory and pale flaxen tones, subtly alternating in textured geometric blocks.
The design is composed of alternating square motifs arranged in an offset grid. One type of square displays a raised chevron or arrow-like pattern in a v-formation, evoking movement and direction, while the adjacent squares are defined by a gridded design with slightly recessed centers, providing a rhythmic counterbalance. The interplay of high and low pile gives the surface a sculptural quality, emphasizing the geometry without relying on color contrast.
Hand-knotted in wool, the rug's natural luster and soft texture enhance its visual calmness. The overall aesthetic is quintessentially Scandinavian—restrained, textural, and effortlessly modern—while the meticulous craftsmanship reveals a strong artisan tradition. Ideal for contemporary interiors, this rug serves as a refined yet cozy foundation, adding depth through both its visual design and three-dimensional structure.
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.
