Scandinavian Mid-Century Geometric Light Beige Flatweave Wool Rug Signed Sverker Greuholm BB8358 5'9" × 8'0" $9,000

A stunning example of Scandinavian textile artistry, this vintage Swedish flat-weave rug by Sverker Greuholm combines structure, subtle colorwork, and geometric clarity in a highly compelling design. Woven in the mid-20th century, the piece epitomizes the refined yet earthy modernism that characterizes Swedish design of the era.

At the heart of the composition lies a symmetric grid of cross-like motifs arranged in rows, surrounded by a rectangular golden-olive frame. These center medallions—rendered in soft shades of powder blue, ivory, and brown—provide a dynamic rhythm while maintaining overall harmony.

The outer field and border are framed with stair-stepped diamonds and a muted striated ground in warm brown. The interplay of cool and warm tones—seafoam, taupe, ecru, and maize yellow—creates a rich visual texture while maintaining a sense of tranquility.

Signature “GS” initials in the corner confirm Greuholm’s authorship, whose work is recognized for its careful composition and use of traditional Swedish weaving techniques. This kilim-style rug is handwoven in wool and is reversible, showcasing durability as well as elegance.

A sophisticated choice for interiors that favor Nordic design, Mid-century modern, or contemporary minimalism, this piece offers quiet visual intrigue and artisan quality.
