Vintage Swedish Geometric Light Gray Flatweave Wool Rug By Agda ÖSterberg BB8132 5'5" × 7'8" $14,000

This vintage Swedish flatweave wool rug, designed by Agda Österberg, reflects the quiet order and color sensitivity of Scandinavian textile art. Woven in a flatwoven construction, it brings together practical craftsmanship and a distinctly modern sense of restraint.

Instead of a central medallion, the design relies on a broad light gray field with a softly variegated, block-like rhythm that feels calm and spacious. Around it, bands of rosy pink and brick red create a warm frame, while small mint green cross motifs punctuate the perimeter with regular spacing. A secondary border of pale ivory and soft blue geometric accents adds another layer of pattern without disturbing the rug’s airy character.

The result is a vintage geometric Swedish rug with clear architectural structure and a delicate pastel palette. Its balance of pink, pale gray, mint, and sand tones makes it especially well suited to interiors that call for pattern, warmth, and visual clarity, whether placed in a contemporary setting or used to introduce a refined Scandinavian note into a more collected room.

Part of the expansive Doris Leslie Blau collection, this vintage rug reflects the gallery's dedication to preserving exceptional craftsmanship and distinctive design traditions. Its character, patina, and artistry make it a sophisticated addition to thoughtfully curated interiors.
