About the Item

Hand-knotted in wool circa 1960-1970, this 5x9 vintage rug is an exciting new piece in our Mid-Century Pasha Collection—a rare curation believed to hail from mid-century Turkish artist and icon Zeki Müren. On The Design: The upper-left corner reads “Tavus Kusu”—the Turkish word for “Peacock”, keeping with the feather-like sweeping patterns—while the lower-right corner enjoys the artist’s signature. One of the many arts of this piece is the variety of colors, and the smart way they’re used to lend such a playful sense of movement and modern mid-century flair to an otherwise soothing repeat of abstract patterns—a mark of finesse considered one of Müren’s many hallmarks. Admirers of the craft will further appreciate the way such uncommon colors for the period breath a modern sense of life (though the deft hand behind such a fine repeat with so many color variations is ahead of its time as well). Though polychromatic in its colorway, keen eyes will note a particular chocolate brown undertone in the field. Both this talent for making a classic his own and quality of work, too, speak to Müren as a student of his craft, and make his works as collectible to the connoisseur as they are inviting and whimsical to designers. 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.
