| Description | A classic hand-knotted silk Hereke that reflects the grace and technical skill of this legendary weaving center. The rug features a large, teardrop-shaped medallion at its center, filled with intricately detailed floral and leaf motifs. This design mirrors the Ottoman artistic tradition of idealizing nature. The deep, dark ground (navy or near-black) adds dramatic contrast, making the light-colored flowers and vine-like details appear almost three-dimensional. The border, in a lighter tone, is framed with rich floral patterns, beautifully highlighting the elegance of the central field. Woven with fine silk threads at an extremely high knot density, this rug has both a sumptuously soft texture and remarkable clarity in its patterns. The silk's natural luster causes the colors to shift beautifully with the light, giving the rug a luxurious and lively appearance. This is not just a decorative object but a collectible work of art. |
