20th Century Yellow with Falling Stars Turkish Rug Designed by Zeki Müren, 1950
About the Item
Unusual for the mustard yellow background this carpet decorated with comet-star motifs, the result of the artistic fantasy of the legendary Turkish artist Zeki Müren (Bursa 1931 -Smirne 1996). Active in areas ranging from classical and contemporary music, to poetry and acting, the artist specialized in Decorative Arts in Istanbul from 1950-1953. Zeki Müren in the 1950s-1960s created a series for his home on the Bosphorus of carpets, today objects sought after by collectors, which are an expression of his whimsical fantasy, decidedly against the current with the Turkish world of those years. His rugs are an expression of joy and life, where color is the master in harmony with decorations that are linked to more artistic experiences.

By Zeki Müren
Located in Firenze, IT
Iconic carpet of the production designed by Zeki Muren, singer and design highly appreciated in the 1950s as well as for his talent as an artist for his eccentric style that characterized his entire production. His style and taste influenced the production of carpets produced in the city of Sparta between 1950 and 1970, but only a few are actually designs made by Muren who often gave a name to his creations and in the weaving, he entered his signature as in the carpet that we present. The yellow, orange, green and black colouring characterize this rare specimen whose name Leopard makes a clear reference to the feline fur.
