About the Item
Mid-20th century Finnish Geometric brown, beige wool rug
Size: 7'4" × 9'11" (223 × 302 cm)
This captivating vintage flat-weave rug is a striking example of Finnish modernist textile design from the mid-20th century. Woven in the 1950s, it features a bold and intricate central panel composed of abstract geometric forms—ranging from stylized diamonds and chevrons to bars, dots, and arrows—set against a rich cocoa brown field. These motifs, executed in ivory, cream, and soft golden hues, evoke the structured rhythm of symbolic or folkloric patterns, yet maintain a distinctly modern sensibility.
Framing the central field is a broad border of horizontal stripes in earthy tones—sandy beige, muted clay, pale yellow, dusty blue, and ivory—that subtly echo the natural Finnish landscape. The contrast between the dense visual texture of the center and the calm, linear framing creates a dynamic but balanced composition.
Crafted from handwoven wool in a traditional flat-weave technique, the rug is both durable and visually refined. It reflects the Finnish ethos of functional design married to aesthetic simplicity—perfect for interiors that value craftsmanship, subtle geometry, and organic color palettes.
This exquisite rug is part of the diversified Doris Leslie Blau selections, renowned for its curated selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs. Doris Leslie Blau offers a vast selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs in a wide range of styles, materials, and price points, making fine textile art accessible to both collectors and designers alike.
