1950's Zeki Muren Turkish Sivas Carpet with Midcentury Cubist Style
About the Item
52592 Zeki Muren Vintage Turkish Sivas Rug, 06'07 x 09'08. This mesmerizing hand-knotted wool Zeki Muren Turkish Sivas rug is a bold expression of modern artistry woven into a rich Anatolian tradition. Inspired by the avant-garde sensibilities of Zeki Muren, the legendary Turkish singer, composer, and designer, this piece fuses Midcentury Modern abstraction with the time-honored craftsmanship of Sivas weavers. The vibrant red field ignites the composition with a fiery energy, setting the stage for a mesmerizing interplay of organic forms, linear accents, and painterly strokes that feel both spontaneous and meticulously arranged.
The Turkish rug’s design is an exploration of movement and rhythm, with elongated, freeform brushstroke motifs flowing horizontally across the field like rippling waves or calligraphic expressions. Rich earthy hues of brown, ochre, and light green punctuate the composition, creating a dynamic contrast against the radiant crimson backdrop. Delicate black linework, intersecting and overlapping, introduces a Cubist sensibility, breaking up the organic forms and adding a layer of structural complexity to the otherwise fluid design.
Subtle variations in abrash and the Sivas rug’s gently distressed patina enhance its depth, lending it an aged, time-softened character that celebrates both modernism and tradition. Woven with fine wool and executed with masterful precision, this Sivas rug carries the spirit of an era that embraced both innovation and heritage. The shimmering metallic flecks woven throughout add an unexpected, almost celestial quality, recalling the interplay of light and texture that was so integral to Midcentury design.
With its fusion of modernist abstraction and rustic Turkish charm, this Zeki Muren-inspired rug is more than just a floor covering—it is a statement of artistic expression. Whether placed in a contemporary loft, a sleek minimalist setting, or an eclectic interior, this woven wonder effortlessly bridges past and present, weaving together the bold vision of a design icon with the enduring beauty of Anatolian craftsmanship.
Rendered in variegated shades of ruby red, scarlet, crimson, red, espresso, coffee, brown, brick red, dark green, gray, and light green with other accent colors.
