Vintage Swedish Pile Rug by Sigvard Bernadotte BB5105 6'2" × 8'0" $16,000

Designed by Sigvard Bernadotte, this vintage Swedish pile rug exemplifies the sophisticated blend of modernist rhythm and Scandinavian warmth that defined his design ethos. The composition is characterized by a repeating zigzag or wave-like motif rendered in plush pile, offering both a tactile and visual texture that enhances the rug’s dimensionality.

The palette features a delicate combination of dusty rose, muted blush, and creamy ivory, highlighted by contouring lines in olive green and earthy ochre tones. These organic hues work harmoniously together to evoke a subtle sense of motion, while maintaining the softness and restraint typical of Swedish design from the era.

Expertly hand-knotted in wool, the rug boasts exceptional craftsmanship with thick, luxurious pile and carefully executed pattern symmetry. The border is framed in a mossy olive tone, grounding the composition and adding a defined visual edge.

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.
