Mid-Century Swedish Rölakan Rug by Ingegerd Silow, at Doris Leslie Blau

About the Item

Mid-Century Swedish Rölakan Rug by Ingegerd Silow Size: 6'9" × 9'9" (205 × 297 cm) This mid-century Swedish flat weave rug, designed by acclaimed textile artist Ingegerd Silow, is a masterclass in geometric refinement and Scandinavian color harmony. Handwoven in the Rölakan technique, the rug features six symmetrical floral medallions set against a subtly variegated ground of pale gray, lavender, and icy blue. Each medallion resembles a stylized blossom or snowflake, rendered with pixelated precision using stepped forms and shifting tones. The alternating shapes create a rhythmic, almost optical effect, enhanced by the soothing palette. Pale celadon, denim, and slate blues dominate the motifs, framed by muted taupe and cool lilac tones—colors that reflect the natural Nordic landscape in early spring. The meticulous craftsmanship is evident in the even weave, clean pattern articulation, and balanced composition. Fringed edges at both ends add a touch of handmade charm and soften the formal geometry. Perfect for collectors of Scandinavian modernism or those seeking a serene, artful textile for contemporary or mid-century interiors, this vintage Swedish rug is both decorative and enduring. 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.
