Modern Swedish Rug

Offered by: Doris Leslie Blau Rugs

Description
A modern flat-weave area rug, being a typical representative of the timeless Swedish school of design. It is woven entirely out of wool by a skilled artisan. The carpet’s pattern consists of a grid of many blue shaded squares. Hexagonal shapes, each with a colored center, form the horizontal lines forming the grid at the boundaries between individual squares. The composition is enclosed with geometric multiple borders.The color palette consists mostly of blues, beige, gray and yellow. Doris Leslie Blau carries an exceptional collection of modern rugs inspired by mid-century Swedish designs. We stay true to the legendary tradition of Scandinavian craftsmanship by hand-weaving flatweave wool Rölakan rugs and wool pile Rya rugs that are very close in looks and feel to the original ones. Contemporary hand-made rugs are a bridge throughout history, they are the fruit of the constant evolution of the weaving craft that has accompanied men since the dawn of civilization.
