About the Item
Swedish Rya Rug by Irja Mikkola Doris Leslie Blau Collection
Size: 3'7" × 5'6" (109 × 167 cm)
This striking Swedish Rya rug, designed by Irja Mikkola in the 1960s, is a bold example of Nordic modern textile expression. Infused with dramatic intensity, the rug features a deep crimson-red field punctuated by a row of abstract circular medallions rendered in rich shades of burgundy and black. The result is a hypnotic composition that balances geometric rhythm with organic softness.
Handwoven from plush wool, the high-pile texture typical of Scandinavian Rya weaving creates a tactile landscape of depth, warmth, and movement. Mikkola’s fearless use of saturated color and subtle tonal variation adds visual energy, making this rug as much an art piece as a functional textile.
Sophisticated yet impactful, this vintage Rya rug is ideal for interiors seeking a touch of mid-century Scandinavian character, whether styled as a floor centerpiece or mounted as a textile wall hanging. Its luxurious texture and expressive design make it a standout addition to both modern and eclectic spaces.
With its unique pattern and refined colors, this rug reflects the impeccable taste of Doris Leslie Blau’s selections. Offering both rare, high-end pieces and more accessible options, Doris Leslie Blau presents rugs in a wide spectrum of prices.
