1920's Turkish Hereke Rug Doris Leslie Blau

Circa: 1920
Color: Beige, Taupe
Origin: Turkey
Type: Hereke
Style: Animal, Botanic, Traditional
This exquisite Hereke rug from early 20th century Turkey epitomizes the meticulous artistry and refined elegance characteristic of this revered weaving tradition. Measuring approximately 14 by 12 feet, the rug features an intricate floral design executed with remarkable finesse and subtlety.
The central field presents an elaborate, all-over floral and foliate pattern with intertwining vines, delicate blossoms, and stylized motifs, gracefully arranged to create a harmonious and balanced composition. The design is executed in soft, muted tones of blush, dusty rose, faded ivory, and gentle grays, reflecting the natural vegetable dyes traditionally used and the gentle wear accrued over nearly a century.
Surrounding the central motif is a series of narrow borders, each finely detailed with complementary floral and geometric elements that enhance the overall visual depth without overwhelming the central field. The borders feature soft reds, blues, and earth tones, adding warmth and subtle contrast.
The wool pile is exceptionally fine and closely knotted, a testament to the superior craftsmanship synonymous with Hereke rugs. The weave exhibits a silky sheen, and the delicate palette is softened by the passage of time, lending the piece a graceful patina and vintage charm.
This Hereke rug is an elegant example of early 20th-century Turkish weaving, combining sophisticated design, expert technique, and an aged palette that complements both traditional and contemporary interiors. It is ideally suited for collectors and connoisseurs seeking a rare and beautiful textile that embodies the heritage and artistry of Turkish rug making.
This exquisite antique rug, sourced from Doris Leslie Blau, showcases a rare blend of history and craftsmanship. Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
