About the Item

Modern Swedish Flat Weave Wool Rug by Doris Leslie Blau Size: 6'4" × 14'6" (193 × 441 cm) A striking blend of geometric precision and folkloric charm, this modern Swedish flat weave rug captures the essence of Scandinavian mid-century design. Handwoven with meticulous craftsmanship, the rug showcases a repeating pattern of stylized leaf and floral medallions arranged in clean rows, each flanked by undulating red wave-like motifs that provide a sense of rhythmic movement. Rendered in a warm, earthy palette of soft beige, deep charcoal, muted gold, brick red, and taupe, the design balances vibrancy with grounded neutrality. The varied motifs—some filled with rectangular insets and others outlined with ladder-like segmentation—bring visual complexity while maintaining a symmetrical harmony across the rug’s surface. The whimsical border features a stepped geometric pattern with alternating tones of dark brown, brick red, and navy blue, adding a decorative yet cohesive frame to the central field. Crafted in wool and woven in the traditional rollakan (rölakan) flat weave technique, the rug not only boasts visual appeal but also exceptional durability and texture. Measuring approximately 15' x 6', its proportions make it ideal for hallways, open-plan spaces, or beneath long dining tables. This piece is a modern revival of Swedish weaving traditions, echoing the influence of textile icons like Märta Måås-Fjetterström and Barbro Nilsson, while offering a fresh, bold interpretation suited to contemporary interiors. A prime example of the exclusive and varied Doris Leslie Blau designs, this rug brings luxury and character to any space. Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
