Vintage Zeki Müren Rug in Gray with Abstract Geometric Patterns from Rug & Kilim

About the Item

Hand-knotted in wool circa 1960-1970, this 8x12 vintage rug is a rare new addition to Rug & Kilim’s Mid-Century Pasha Collection. Our collection is a commemoration, with one-of-a-kind rugs we believe to represent the works of Turkish designer Zeki Müren. On the Design: A connoisseur will admire this rug as an exemplar of Müren's renown for recapturing a diverse range of artistic movements through his own playful style. To wit, one might see an inspiration from Joan Miro in this piece’s expressive abstract modern geometric patterns. There’s a look of artist intention in such a smart play of bright, arresting colors over more industrial silver-gray and blue field tones that speaks to this artist’s renown as well. Keen eyes will further admire the sharp detail and curvature like few of its kind—a rare feat for its equally rare large size among Müren’s rugs. Few art rugs of the period achieve this immersive look, much like that of a bold, graphic painting underfoot. It’s among the most collectible and valuable pieces believed to represent this artist and his smart, yet playful signature style that redefined mid-century rug making. Condition: This Zeki Müren rug further enjoys a good condition for its age and origin. Designers and collectors will note its full, thick pile—an especially rare find in Müren’s works curated today.
