Mid-Century Scandinavian Geometric Dark Gray Flatweave Wool Rug Signed By Ingegerd Silow BB6553 4'5" × 6'8" $6,000

Woven in Sweden circa 1955, this signed flat-weave rug by Ingegerd Silow captures mid-century Scandinavian design in a quietly measured geometric composition. Its handwoven rölakan structure gives the piece a crisp, graphic presence while preserving the warmth and tactility associated with Swedish textile art.

The field is organized as a modular checkerboard of stone gray, tan, and soft beige rectangles, creating a disciplined architectural rhythm across the surface. Within that orderly framework, small mirrored floral forms appear like stylized blossoms, worked in cream, olive, burnt orange, and brown. A stepped dark brown border frames the composition and reinforces the rug’s clean, balanced silhouette without interrupting its calm movement.

The palette feels earthy and restrained, with muted neutrals softened by subtle touches of color that enliven the design without overwhelming it. That combination of structure, softness, and color nuance makes the rug especially well suited to modern, Scandinavian, or minimalist interiors, where geometric pattern can add character while remaining elegantly understated.
