Doris Leslie Blau Vintage Swedish Striped Gray Rug by Lagerhem Ullberg

About the Item

Mid-20th century striped gray Swedish flat-weave rug by Lagerhem Ullberg Size: 9'3" × 16'5" (281 × 500 cm) A striking example of mid-century Scandinavian design created by Gunilla Lager hem Ullberg, this vintage Swedish flatweave rug exemplifies the minimalist elegance and functional artistry characteristic of the region’s textile traditions. Woven in the 1950s, the rug features a refined composition of narrow, undulating dark gray and black stripes across a neutral ground, creating a subtle rhythmic pattern with a textured, tactile appeal. The design is punctuated by bold vertical bands in primary and jewel tones—crimson, cobalt blue, teal, and mustard yellow—which bring vibrant structure and balance to the composition. Handwoven from high-quality wool, this rug offers both durability and softness, making it ideal for contemporary interiors seeking a blend of timeless craftsmanship and modern aesthetic. Its graphic yet understated palette lends itself well to minimalist, industrial, or Nordic-inspired décor. A true embodiment of Swedish weaving artistry, this flatweave is not only a floor covering but a piece of design history. 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.
