Midcentury Swedish Brown, Gray and Beige Flat-Woven Wool Rug BB6281 6'4" × 9'7" $13,000

This rug, created by Judith Johansson, is perfectly designed and simple. The color scheme, kept in brown, grey, and beige tones, generates an aesthetic feeling and is pretty universal. The central part of the vintage carpet is surrounded by dark brown and light grey lines, which are intriguingly softened with other shades.

The intense tree-bark background, filled with oatmeal beige polygons organized in three rows in the middle, is the first thing that catches the eye of an observer. Inside the hexagons, two motifs are placed alternately: yellowish rectangles and three light grey stripes. This vintage Scandinavian carpet paradoxically gives the impression of both simplicity and intricacy, which makes it so unique.
