On the Design:

As admirers of the craft may note in the medallions, this rug is inspired by Khotan rug designs. The pattern carries resemblance with the fou/shou floral medallions in Khotan Samarkand rugs and similar Buddhist, Chinese and other provenances.

In this gorgeous and unusual adaptation of the style, one may observe a pale green field - seldom seen in Khotan gallery runners. Connoisseurs will appreciate the one of a kind vision of this piece and in a way that’s a hallmark of Müren’s unusual, collectible pieces

Overall an elegant masterpiece - worthy of decorating an array of rooms.

Condition:

This mid-century Zeki Müren rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin. Its construction has been lowered to preserve its construction, which lends it the distressed look of wear and chic in a low pile. less
