Vintage Swedish Floral Light Beige Flatweave Wool Rug By Ingegerd Silow BB9008 6'8" × 11'8" $20,000

This vintage Swedish flatweave wool rug by Ingegerd Silow comes from the Scandinavian weaving tradition, where restrained structure and lyrical color often meet in a single design. Handwoven in wool, it presents the crisp, tactile character that has made Swedish flatweaves so enduring in modern interiors.

The composition is borderless and quietly asymmetrical, with oversized botanical forms that overlap across a light beige ground. Pale sky blue, sage, olive, blush, peach, coral, lavender, and soft gray create a painterly rhythm, while stepped edges give the leaf-like shapes a subtle graphic clarity. Rather than a strict medallion layout, the design flows organically from one motif to the next, producing movement without visual weight.

That balance makes the rug especially appealing in rooms that call for color, texture, and an airy sense of order. Its flatwoven construction keeps the profile low and versatile, while Silow’s modern Scandinavian sensibility lends the piece a refined decorative presence that works beautifully beneath clean-lined furniture, in layered contemporary settings, or as a textile accent with collector appeal.

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.
