Vintage Finnish Hand-Knotted Wool Pile Rug, Doris Leslie Blau

About the Item

Vintage Finnish Hand-Knotted Wool Pile Rug Size: 7'4" × 10'8" (223 × 325 cm) Circa: 1940 This charming vintage Finnish rug captures the essence of Nordic design through its minimalist motif and warm, inviting palette. Hand-knotted in high-quality wool, the rug features a soft beige field dotted with small, stylized floral or eye-shaped medallions in a repeat grid pattern. Each motif is rendered in a mix of terracotta, golden yellow, and umber tones, creating a subtle yet rhythmic visual texture. The border design is equally refined, with warm ochre and burnt orange bands enclosing the central composition, adding a hint of contrast without overwhelming the calm aesthetic. The plush pile enhances the rug’s tactile appeal, offering both comfort and durability. Its simple, symmetrical layout and muted coloration make it ideal for interiors that emphasize Scandinavian or modernist influences, while the hand-crafted detail ensures each piece carries an authentic artisanal character. This vintage Finnish rug is not only a functional textile but also a piece of mid-century decorative history, reflecting the understated elegance and practicality of Nordic craftsmanship. As part of the curated collection at Doris Leslie Blau, a brand celebrated for its dedication to quality and design heritage, this rug exemplifies their commitment to originality and artisanry. 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.
