On the Design:

Creamy beige, sage green and particularly vibrant, saturated jewel tone accents in the floral patterns—teal, peach and violet purple among the many at play make it an exemplar of Múren’s style. Admirers of the craft will appreciate Zeki’s signature at play with a sophisticated polychromy exemplifying his masterful subversion of traditional vocabularies—where unexpected chromatic juxtapositions elevate archetypal geometries. Each piece is a unique take on an aesthetic, which speaks to Müren as a devoted student of his craft ahead of his time, and works like these have a fabulous marriage of contemporary and shabby-chic feel today.

Condition:

This mid-century rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin. Its pile has been lowered to maintain its construction, which creates the look of a distressed rug, though it is perfectly ready for the floor as is. See less
