Woven in the 1950s, the rug is characterized by its striking use of greens—from fresh spring leaf to deep forest—interwoven with accents of soft ivory, earthy brown, and cool turquoise. The geometric motif is both rhythmic and symbolic, with symmetrical bands of stylized floral and totem-like forms running along the edges, enclosing a luminous green field at the center. Checkerboard cross shapes punctuate the design, adding crisp contrast and suggesting a harmonious interplay between nature and order. Delicate vertical stripes in yellow further emphasize balance and symmetry. Expertly woven in wool using the traditional rölakan technique, the rug is durable yet refined, showcasing the tactile beauty of flat-weaving. The mix of color tones within each hue adds depth and movement, while the fringed edges provide a soft, textural finish. 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.
