Swedish Flat Woven Rug by Märta Måås Fjetterström AB BB8184 6'0" × 10'2" $35,000

This vintage Swedish flat woven rug, titled “Nyponblomma” (Rosehip Flower), is a testament to the refined artistry of Märta Måås-Fjetterström AB. Created in the early-to-mid 20th century, the rug captures the essence of Scandinavian design with its harmonious palette and structured geometry.

Woven in soft earth tones—beige, mocha, blush pink, and golden yellow—the rug is composed of alternating rectangular panels arranged in a rhythmic grid. Each panel contains either linear motifs or castle-like stepped forms, delicately punctuated by checked centers. The interplay of vertical lines and square medallions generates a compelling visual texture, simultaneously symmetrical and dynamic.

Rendered in wool, the flat weave technique gives this piece a refined texture and durable character suitable for both modern and traditional interiors. The fringe on either end adds a touch of rustic charm, while the weaver’s initials woven into the edge authenticate its artisanal heritage.

With its unique pattern and refined colors, this vintage rug reflects the impeccable taste of Doris Leslie Blau’s selections. Offering both rare, high-end pieces and more accessible options, Doris Leslie Blau presents rugs in a wide spectrum of prices.
