Scandinavian Mid-Century Abstract Soft Beige Flatweave Wool Rug By Erik Lundberg BB7690 8'5" × 12'0" $28,000

This vintage Swedish flatweave wool rug by Erik Lundberg was woven in the mid-20th century and reflects the disciplined clarity of Scandinavian Modern design. Its format is pared back to a large brick-red field enclosed by a wide olive-green border, creating a calm architectural composition that feels both grounded and refined.

The central panel is rendered with subtle horizontal striation, so the red reads as layered brick, terracotta, and crimson rather than a single flat tone. That variegated weave gives the surface movement and warmth, while the green frame acts as a quiet perimeter, sharpening the rug’s geometry without interrupting its restraint.

Woven in a flatweave construction, it offers the crisp handle and visual lightness prized in Swedish textiles. The visible initials at the corners reinforce its collector appeal and underscore the piece’s design pedigree. In a dining room, living area, or studio, it supplies color, structure, and a distinctly modernist sense of order.

Part of the expansive Doris Leslie Blau collection, this vintage rug reflects the gallery's dedication to preserving exceptional craftsmanship and distinctive design traditions. Its character, patina, and artistry make it a sophisticated addition to thoughtfully curated interiors.
