About the Item
Vintage Swedish Pile Rug in Geometric Checkerboard Design
Size: 3'0" × 6'0" (91 × 182 cm)
This charming vintage Swedish pile rug, dating from the mid-20th century, exemplifies the fusion of functionality and folk-inspired artistry so emblematic of Scandinavian textile traditions. Woven in a warm, earthy palette of golden beige, rust, and ivory, the rug's high-pile texture offers both visual richness and tactile comfort.
The design centers on a plain camel-colored field, framed by a bold checkerboard border. Alternating squares of russet and ochre are adorned with minimalistic folkloric motifs—zigzags and stylized trees or arrow forms—that evoke traditional Nordic symbolism. A scalloped outer border in soft cream and brown tones enhances the visual rhythm and adds a final note of refinement.
Crafted with a thick wool pile on a durable flatwoven foundation, this rug balances softness and strength. Its robust construction and inviting aesthetic make it a versatile fit for interiors seeking authenticity, mid-century character, or hygge sensibility.
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.
