Mid-Century Scandinavian Geometric Ivory Flatweave Wool Rug By Berit Koenig BB8325 6'6" × 7'10" $14,000

This vintage Swedish flatweave wool rug by Berit Koenig brings a mid-century Scandinavian geometric vocabulary to the floor in a compact, collectible format. Rooted in Sweden’s röllakan tradition, it balances folk-inspired patterning with the disciplined clarity that defines modern Scandinavian design.

The field is arranged as a tightly ordered grid of terracotta and charcoal compartments, each filled with either stacked ivory diamonds or a slim, tree-like chevron motif. That alternating rhythm gives the composition a tailored, architectural presence, while the woven structure keeps the surface lively and tactile. The palette feels grounded and warm, with burnt orange tones tempered by charcoal gray and ivory.

A serrated border frames the interior pattern with crisp contrast, repeating the rug’s graphic language along the edges and reinforcing its symmetrical, allover structure. The small BK initials near the lower edge quietly underscore the maker’s authorship, adding a thoughtful collector’s detail to this refined Scandinavian flatweave.

Curated by Doris Leslie Blau, this vintage rug carries the distinct character and artisanal soul that the gallery has championed for decades. With an unrivaled selection spanning eras, origins, and price points, Doris Leslie Blau continues to make fine carpet art accessible to designers and collectors worldwide.
