Swedish Mid-Century Geometric Warm Tan Flatweave Wool Rug BB8938 1'10" × 3'5" $2,000

This vintage Swedish flatweave kilim, woven in the mid-20th century, reflects the disciplined beauty of Scandinavian textile design. Handwoven in wool, its compact format pairs practical construction with a graphic presence that feels both folkloric and distinctly modern.

A brick red ground is organized into a strict panelled composition, where cream diamonds, trellis lines, and stepped squares create a steady rhythm from end to end. Navy blue corner wedges and small starburst emblems punctuate the layout, while the central floral medallions add a more intimate focal note. The stepped border reinforces the geometry with a crisp, rhythmic frame.

The flatweave construction keeps the surface taut and graphic, giving the rug the clarity of a woven textile and the versatility so valued in Swedish interiors. Its mix of brick red, warm tan, cream, and navy blue lends warmth without dullness, making it especially effective in rooms that balance clean-lined furniture with layered, collected character.

Sourced from the expansive Doris Leslie Blau collection, this vintage rug exemplifies the gallery's passion for preserving remarkable carpets of enduring beauty. DLB offers a diverse selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs, accommodating collectors and designers across every style and budget.
