Mid-Century Swedish Geometric Slate Gray Flatweave Wool Rug By Erik Lundberg BB7889 6'5" × 9'9" $17,000

Celebrate the clean sophistication of Swedish modernism with this exquisite flat-weave rug by renowned designer Erik Lundberg. Handwoven in the 1950s, the piece exemplifies the understated elegance and crisp geometry characteristic of Scandinavian textile art.

Set against a soft ivory background, the rug features a centrally banded field of shifting vertical blue striations, subtly interspersed with minimalist white diamond motifs. This rhythmic repetition is framed by a structured border of stylized cross-like medallions in muted tones of slate blue, warm beige, camel, and ivory—each element precisely arranged in harmonious intervals.

The design’s tonal palette of Nordic blues and earthy neutrals conveys serenity and balance, making it ideal for both modernist and transitional interiors. Finely woven in wool, the rug reflects the durability and tactile charm of traditional Swedish craftsmanship while maintaining a fresh and timeless appeal.

Signed in the weave, this textile is not only a decorative accent but also a collectible work of mid-century design history.
