$24,000

This vintage Finnish flat-weave rug, attributed to Alestalon Mattokutomo and dating back to circa 1960, captures the quiet elegance and craftsmanship of mid-century Scandinavian textile design. Expertly handwoven in Finland, the rug reflects a harmonious fusion of modernist restraint and traditional folk influence.

The composition is defined by a central field of vertical stripes in soft shades of buttercream, warm ochre, and sandy beige, reminiscent of filtered sunlight. A striking horizontal band near one end features stylized terracotta and ivory geometric motifs—abstract and totemic in nature—rooted in Finnish folk iconography. Solid end panels in muted ivory further enhance the design’s balance and sophistication.

Crafted in the kilim (flat-weave) technique using high-quality wool, the rug offers both durability and a soft, tactile surface. Its reversible construction, understated palette, and clean symmetry make it an excellent choice for contemporary, Nordic, or minimalist interiors. This piece is not only a functional floor covering but also a collector-worthy artifact from the golden age of Scandinavian textile art.

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.
