Swedish Mid-Century Navy Blue Hand-Knotted Wool Rug BB6396 4'5" × 8'6" $7,000

A striking example of mid-century Swedish textile artistry, this vintage Rya rug embodies the essence of Scandinavian modernism through its bold color palette and lush texture. Hand-knotted in the 1950s, the piece features a deep pile crafted from high-quality wool, delivering both exceptional softness and visual dimension.

The design plays with vertical rhythm and abstract expressionism, with black and teal stripes running lengthwise over a base of cobalt and navy blue. Interspersed irregularly are vivid green and olive-toned dots and squares, adding a playful contrast and a sense of organic spontaneity. The dynamic composition evokes both a forested landscape and an abstract painting, blurring the boundary between utility and fine art.

The reverse side reveals meticulous craftsmanship, with a tightly woven yellow-green foundation threaded with flecks of indigo and emerald—offering further visual intrigue even when folded or rolled.

Perfect for collectors and interior connoisseurs, this Swedish Rya rug is not only a cozy floor covering but a bold statement piece, ideal for eclectic, modern, or Nordic-inspired interiors.

Showcasing the finest materials and patterns, this design is part of the expansive Doris Leslie Blau collection, renowned for its rare and unique finds across a wide range of prices.
