Vintage Swedish Flat Woven by Ingegerd Silow BB7885 6'5" × 9'6" $12,000

Crafted by celebrated Swedish textile designer Ingegerd Silow, this vintage flat weave rug exemplifies the timeless grace of mid-century Scandinavian design. Woven entirely by hand, it features a signature “IS” monogram—a mark of Silow’s artistry and commitment to high-quality craftsmanship.

The rug’s palette is a stunning symphony of cool blues, from azure and slate to periwinkle and teal, evoking the serene Nordic landscape. Contrasting tones of white, charcoal, mint green, golden ochre, and soft blush pink emerge in stylized floral and geometric motifs that punctuate the composition with balance and rhythm.

At the heart of the design are three large lozenge-shaped medallions, each grounded by elongated gray and white anchors with small floral bursts at either end. These medallions are framed by rectangular stepped-edge motifs, lending structure and visual depth to the flowing field. The symmetrical layout and precise color blocking are hallmarks of Swedish rya and rollakan traditions, interpreted here through Silow’s modernist lens.

The rug is flat-woven in wool, offering durability with a tactile, low-pile surface ideal for both minimalist interiors and cozy, layered spaces. More than just a textile, this rug is a work of woven art—a reflection of Scandinavian aesthetics that honor simplicity, harmony, and nature. Whether paired with Danish modern furniture or used to offset contemporary minimalism, this Silow rug brings warmth, character, and heritage into any environment.

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.
