Swedish Vintage Geometric Slate Gray Flatweave Wool Rug By Konstfliten-BohusslöJd BB5695 4'9" × 6'9" $8,000

This mid-century Swedish flat-weave rug, attributed to the acclaimed Bohusslöjd cooperative under the Konstfliten label, exemplifies the refined balance of geometric precision and Scandinavian restraint that defined the golden era of Swedish textile design.

The composition is structured around a gridded matrix of interlocking squares and rectangles. Alternating blocks of linear stripes, olive green panels, and crosshatched motifs in soft ivory, mustard, and charcoal create a rhythmic interplay across the muted lavender-grey ground. Thin burgundy outlines segment the design, while small punches of coral red in the corners act as subtle yet striking visual accents.

Handwoven in wool using the flat-weave (rolakan) technique, the rug showcases the superior craftsmanship of Bohusslöjd, renowned for its artisan-led production and collaborations with leading designers. The textured surface and nuanced color blending give the piece warmth and dimensionality, while its abstract, architectural sensibility allows it to complement both mid-century and contemporary interiors.

Signed with a woven label bearing “Bohusslöjd – Konstfliten,” this rug is not only a decorative textile but also a collectible artifact of Swedish modernist design heritage.

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.
