Swedish Flat Woven Signed SH Svensk Hemslojd BB8361 7'6" × 10'6" $17,000

Striking in its symmetry and saturated in a bold crimson red, this vintage Swedish flat weave rug, signed “SH” for Svensk Hemslöjd, is a masterclass in Scandinavian modernism. A meticulous grid of geometric medallions floats across the field—each motif comprised of a soft lavender center bordered by a rhythmic combination of ivory and beige stepped forms, creating a captivating pixel-like pattern that recalls mid-century textile abstraction.

Handwoven in pure wool, the rug showcases the distinctive craftsmanship and clarity of design associated with the Swedish Modern movement. The harmonious balance between the vibrant red ground and the cool, muted accent colors makes this piece a compelling anchor for interiors that value both boldness and subtlety.

Signed in the weave, this rug is not only a decorative textile but a cultural artifact of Swedish design history, embodying the functional beauty and honest materiality championed by Svensk Hemslöjd artisans. Whether displayed in a minimalist interior or a layered, eclectic space, this piece brings graphic precision and timeless Nordic elegance.

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.
