About the Item
Vintage Swedish Flat-Weave Rug by Agda Österberg
Size: 6'4" × 9'9" (193 × 297 cm)
A masterful example of mid-century Swedish textile design, this handwoven flat-weave rug by renowned Swedish designer Agda Österberg showcases her signature balance of softness, structure, and subtle colorplay. The composition is framed by a delicate checkerboard border of ivory and pastel-toned squares that alternate against a cool field of desaturated blues and purples. At the core, large tonal checks in shades of powder blue and silvery slate form a quiet but steady grid, evoking calm and harmony.
A series of stylized rose-pink medallions punctuate the border’s inner edge, gently breaking the geometric rhythm with a touch of playfulness. The use of high-quality wool enhances both the texture and the gentle vibrancy of the color palette. Woven using the traditional rölakan technique, the rug exemplifies Scandinavian modernism’s emphasis on utility and refined aesthetics.
Signed in the lower corner with Österberg’s initials, this piece reflects her lifelong dedication to the craft and her ability to imbue everyday objects with warmth, rhythm, and clarity.
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.
