Made with hand-knotted wool in Turkey circa 1960-1970, this 2x6 vintage runner rug is an exciting new addition to Rug & Kilim’s Mid-Century Pasha Collection—a line of our classics devoted to works believed to hail from Turkish multidisciplinary artist Zeki Müren.
On the Design:
Polychromatic geometric patterns, mosaic-like in their beauty, with beige-brown undertone in the honeycomb lattice, as this type of geometry is often called. Inner motifs, which look to be minimalist florals or even eight-pointed stars, enjoy a teal accent, and offer an unexpected marriage of both repetition and variety the way they float atop the wide variety of colors beneath each. Exactly the kind of subtle, brilliant technique that distinguishes Müren’s works, yet they still enjoy such a livable and approachable air of welcome as this piece does; full of joyful color and life. 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 mid-century rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin. Its pile has been lowered to maintain its construction, which creates the look of a distressed rug, though it is perfectly ready for the floor as is. less
