Swedish Mid-Century Geometric Teal Hand-Knotted Wool Rug Rya Pile Rug By Terttu Tomero BB9047 4'7" × 7'0" $7,000

This vintage Swedish rya pile rug by Terttu Tomero belongs to the mid-century Scandinavian tradition, where tactile wool, restrained geometry, and saturated color were used to bring warmth to modern interiors.

Its design is organized as an allover modular grid of softly staggered rectangles, creating a calm checkerboard effect rather than a formal medallion. A deep teal ground shifts through blue, turquoise, and forest-green tones, giving the pattern a subtle sense of movement. Because the composition has no hard border, the surface reads as open, architectural, and quietly rhythmic. The long hand-knotted wool pile adds depth and a velvety, sculptural finish.

That balance of structure and softness makes the rug especially versatile in contemporary settings, where it can anchor a seating area, temper clean-lined furniture, or introduce texture to a pared-back room. It reflects the clarity of Swedish design and the inviting character of rya weaving, while remaining composed enough to work as a refined accent in layered, design-led spaces.

This remarkable vintage rug comes from the curated collection at Doris Leslie Blau, renowned for its discerning eye for quality, artistry, and timeless design. Doris Leslie Blau presents an exceptional range of vintage, antique, and contemporary rugs suited to both classic and modern interiors.
