Hand-knotted in wool, this 7x9 vintage rug originating from Turkey, circa 1960-1970, is a very special piece, featuring a light and refreshing mid-century classical design we believe to hail from multidisciplinary Turkish designer Zeki Müren.
On The Design:
Admirers of the craft will appreciate this polychromatic design which exemplifies intricate floral patterns that span its entire surface, showcasing a remarkable level of detail and precision. The whimsical play of vivid colors joyfully accompanies the floral pattern that covers the entire scale in a mosaic design. This special rug features playful and traditional elements that speaks to Müren as an eclectic designer and marks his rugs distinct in his period. Connoisseurs may admire the playful sense of movement and the transitional, almost modern sense of life this piece breathes into more traditional patterns.
It’s a light and playful piece with the whimsy of a Zeki Müren rug, but also with the comfortable and livable undertone that his works also embody, so thoughtful in their approach to the postmodernist appeal of the time and collectible in his works curated today.
Condition:
This vintage Turkish rug enjoys good condition for its age and origin. Connoisseurs and collectors will note this rug is among the few full-pile pieces believed to remain of Müren’s works, making it especially rare and collectible. less
