Mid-Century Scandinavian Geometric Light Gray With Brick Red Flatweave Wool Rug BB6883 5'3" × 7'7" $14,000

This mid-century Scandinavian flat-weave rug brings a distinctly Swedish sense of order to the floor, with a handwoven wool surface and a crisp geometric layout. Its light gray ground feels airy and understated, while the brick red framing immediately defines the composition.

The design is built from a checkerboard grid of elongated rectangles and open squares, creating a calm, architectural rhythm rather than a busy pattern. Along the perimeter, red blocks punctuated by small white cross-like motifs form a graphic border that recalls the disciplined language of Nordic modernist textiles. The contrast is precise, yet the overall effect remains soft and livable.

Because the field stays visually open, the rug reads easily beneath contemporary furniture, where its geometry adds structure without weight. The flat weave reinforces that practical Scandinavian character: durable, clean-lined, and suited to interiors that favor clarity, warmth, and a restrained mid-century palette.

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.
