This line is a commemoration, with rare curations we believe to hail from multidisciplinary Turkish designer Zeki Müren.

On the Design:

Admirers of the craft will appreciate this design that enjoys polychromatic geometric patterns with the most interesting choice of tones and sense of depth. Admirers of the craft will further admire the sheer attention to variation and movement created therein—an exemplar of Müren’s most distinguished works. That marriage of a sense of whimsy and a smart approach to classic design principles is one of the celebrated calling cards in Müren’s rare works. Few in his era, if any, had such a deviation to color variation like that in this comfortable rug and its brilliant sense of movement.

Condition:

This mid-century Zeki Müren runner rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin. Its construction has been lowered to preserve its construction, which lends it the distressed look of wear and chic in a low pile. See less
