Scandinavian Vintage Geometric Light Beige Flatweave Wool Rug BB8116 5'7" × 8'0" $9,000

This vintage Scandinavian flatweave wool rug comes from the Nordic weaving tradition, where functional craftsmanship is often balanced with quiet graphic order. Its handwoven construction and light, airy palette give it the easy versatility associated with classic Scandinavian textiles.

The composition is built around a calm light beige field, divided by subtle horizontal bands that keep the center visually open. Framing that quiet interior is a chocolate-brown border, then a perimeter of repeating geometric cartouches rendered in sky blue, sage green, warm tan, and muted orange. The small motifs feel measured and architectural, lending rhythm without crowding the design. A narrow striped accent at the edges adds another layer of definition and reinforces the rug’s structured, panelled look.

Because the pattern stays disciplined and the colors remain soft, the rug reads as both decorative and restrained. Its wool flatweave surface offers a practical, textural quality that suits modern, minimalist, and Scandinavian interiors, while still bringing enough color and pattern to anchor a room with character.

Curated by Doris Leslie Blau, this vintage rug represents the enduring beauty and craftsmanship that have defined the gallery since its establishment in 1965.
