Swedish Mid-Century Striped Light Beige Flatweave Wool Rug Finnish Rug By Alestalon Mattokutomo BB8096 5'5" × 7'10" $26,000

This vintage Finnish flatweave wool rug, attributed to Alestalon Mattokutomo and woven circa 1960, captures the disciplined calm of mid-century Scandinavian textile design. Its kilim construction and restrained palette give it the clarity of a modern textile while preserving the warmth of handwoven craft.

A soft light beige field is crossed by fine horizontal bands in pale yellow and warm ivory, creating a gentle shimmer rather than a hard stripe. Near one edge, a narrow vertical panel introduces rust-brown geometric motifs, a quiet counterpoint that brings architectural rhythm to the composition. A pale gray outer zone and tactile fringe complete the balanced layout.

The result is a Scandinavian vintage rug with a serene, graphic presence that works easily in contemporary, minimalist, or Nordic interiors. Its wool texture, open spacing, and asymmetrical structure make it especially effective in spaces that call for lightness, pattern, and a subtle sense of history.

Sourced from the expansive Doris Leslie Blau collection, this vintage rug exemplifies the gallery's passion for preserving remarkable carpets of enduring beauty.
