About the Item
Vintage Swedish Flat-Weave Rug
Size: 6'3" × 4'10" (190 × 147 cm)
Subtly sophisticated and unmistakably Scandinavian, this vintage Swedish flat-weave rug captures the elegant simplicity and pastoral charm that define mid-century Nordic design. Handwoven in the 1950s, this piece showcases the exceptional craftsmanship and aesthetic refinement of traditional Swedish textile artistry.
The composition is a masterclass in balance and geometry. A wide, blush-toned central field—rendered in finely mottled, hand-dyed wool—anchors the design, bordered by a richly decorative band of stepped medallions in dusty rose, soft sage, robin’s egg blue, and creamy ivory. The border pattern is rhythmically structured in a diagonal arrangement, creating a subtle sense of motion that contrasts beautifully with the calm expanse of the field.
The rug’s muted, earthy palette evokes the understated naturalism of the Swedish countryside. This soft coloration makes the piece exceptionally versatile—it can enhance a minimal modern space just as easily as it complements a more eclectic or vintage-inspired interior.
Flat-woven using durable wool in the traditional rollakan technique, the rug is fully reversible, adding to its practical appeal. Whether used as a functional floor covering or a decorative accent, this Swedish flat-weave rug embodies timeless design, understated luxury, and a deep respect for craftsmanship.
Rich in heritage and artistry, this handmade rug exemplifies the high standards of Doris Leslie Blau’s curated pieces. With a wide range of prices, Doris Leslie Blau makes exceptional rugs accessible to collectors and designers alike.
