About the Item
Vintage Swedish Rya Rug Doris Leslie Blau
Size: 10'0" × 14'10" (304 × 452 cm)
This exceptional vintage Swedish Rya rug, signed "K.S. 1929," is a true testament to the rich Scandinavian textile heritage and the enduring appeal of handwoven craftsmanship. Measuring approximately 15 x 10 feet, the rug exemplifies the bold artistry and intricate detailing that characterize early 20th-century Swedish rug design.
The composition features a dramatic central medallion crowned with the initials "K.S." and the year "1929," elegantly encircled by a ring of floral motifs. The rug's luminous mustard-yellow field creates a striking backdrop, against which multicolored bouquets and stylized floral elements unfurl in vibrant hues of pink, rose, blue, green, and ivory. These ornate botanical forms evoke the romance of traditional Swedish folk art while embracing a sophisticated aesthetic.
The border is framed by a scalloped deep burgundy band densely adorned with vivid floral clusters and leafy vines, bringing a lush and vibrant perimeter to the more serene interior. Subtle geometric teeth line the edges, providing a visual counterbalance that enhances the overall symmetry and cohesion of the design.
Woven from high-quality wool, this Rya rug features a dense, long pile that lends it a plush, almost tapestry-like texture, designed to offer both warmth and visual richness. Its meticulous hand-knotting and the natural vegetable-dyed palette speak to the authenticity and durability of its construction.
More than a floor covering, this 1929 Swedish Rya rug stands as a historical artifact and a decorative centerpiece. It would serve equally well in contemporary interiors seeking a touch of vintage flair or in traditional settings that value craftsmanship and heritage. A rare collector’s piece, this rug embodies the spirit and elegance of Scandinavian design at its finest.
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.
