It’s a rare and exciting new curation from Rug & Kilim’s Mid-Century Pasha Collection—a collection devoted to Müren’s remaining and inspired works in our craft today.

On the Design:

Admirers of the craft will appreciate this vintage rug in beige and brown tones, for its whimsical yet smart sensibilities, in the most exceptional colors and a great size suited to wider spaces—as versatile for interior design as it is collectible for admirers of this provenance. Keen eyes for detail will appreciate this rug among Müren’s select works with a more reserved palette, and how his use of bold figures and unexpected colors stands out both among works of the period and even among modern rugs roday. Few ateliers could create such a smart sense of depth and dimensionality in such a reserved way, and this piece is exemplary of that beauty, as well as the many others that speak to Müren as a master of his craft.

Condition:

This mid-century rug enjoys good condition for its age and origin. Its pile height has been lowered to preserve its construction, which lends it the distressed look of wear and boho chic in the nap—a low pile height well-suited to swinging and sliding doors, among many clearance-conscious design applications. less
