Vintage Scandinavian Abstract Brick Red Flatweave Wool Rug Double Woven Pile BB8770 6'10" × 10'5" $17,000

Woven in Sweden in the mid-20th century, this vintage Scandinavian rug reflects the region’s disciplined tradition of modern wool weaving. Its double-woven pile gives the piece a substantial hand and a refined, architectural feel, balancing everyday durability with the quiet presence collectors look for in vintage Swedish rugs.

The composition is almost entirely open field, rendered in brick red with subtle terracotta undertones and fine tonal abrash. Rather than a border or medallion, the rug relies on surface movement: minute striations, shifting density, and the natural irregularities of the weave create depth inside the otherwise solid-looking ground. The effect is calm, but never flat.

With its Mid-Century Modern and Scandinavian Modern sensibility, it works especially well in interiors that need warmth without ornament. This vintage room-size rug settles a space with ease, pairing naturally with wood, leather, linen, and streamlined furniture while preserving the tactile character of handwoven construction.

Part of the Doris Leslie Blau collection, this vintage piece reflects the gallery's unwavering dedication to quality, authenticity, and design heritage. Founded in 1965, Doris Leslie Blau remains one of the world's most trusted sources for exceptional rugs, from rare mid-century finds to contemporary masterworks.
