About the Item

Vintage Swedish Double Woven Pile Rug in Rich Red Size: 6'10" × 10'5" (208 × 317 cm) A masterclass in Scandinavian textile minimalism, this vintage Swedish pile rug from the mid-20th century captivates with its monochromatic complexity and tactile richness. Woven using the double-pile technique, it presents a deep, resonant red field subtly animated by a small-scale, undulating pattern that shifts with the light and movement—offering a quiet sense of rhythm and texture. The rug’s surface is composed of a dense interplay of crimson and burnt umber yarns, creating a soft, almost velvet-like effect that blurs the line between simplicity and intricacy. This restrained palette and lack of overt ornamentation place the emphasis squarely on materiality and craftsmanship—a hallmark of Scandinavian modernist design. Executed in pure wool, the rug has a luxurious heft and warmth. The tight, looped weave gives it an inviting softness underfoot, while also enhancing its durability. The edges are clean-finished and minimally framed, allowing the rich color field to remain uninterrupted and bold. Ideal for modern, minimalist, or mid-century inspired interiors, this piece exudes a quiet confidence. It functions equally well as a grounding element in a contemporary space or as a vibrant accent in more neutral surroundings. With its unique pattern and refined colors, this vintage 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.
