This Vorwerk rug from the 1960s was created based on a design by the Brazilian landscape architect and artist Roberto Burle Marx. The piece is distinguished by its complex, abstract pattern, which incorporates the organic and geometric forms for which Burle Marx is known in his landscape designs and artworks.
Made of wool, the rug displays a vibrant palette of blues, browns, greens, oranges, and other colors arranged in a dynamic patchwork design. Measuring 250 cm wide and 350 cm long, it offers a generous surface area. The original Vorwerk and Gildemuster labels on the reverse confirm the provenance and quality of this mid-century textile artwork.
The rug is in very good condition, with vibrant colors and an intact structure that testifies to careful use. The wool has retained its texture, and the pattern and colors are clearly visible.
This rug makes a strong statement piece for a living room or a large dining area. It goes perfectly with mid-century modern furniture or as a colorful contrast in a minimalist, contemporary interior.
