About the Item
Antique Turkish Hereke Rug
Size: 10'4" × 14'0" (314 × 426 cm).
A masterful expression of Ottoman elegance, this 1920s Turkish Hereke rug captures the refined artistry and cultural grandeur associated with one of Turkey’s most prestigious weaving centers. Woven with exquisite craftsmanship, this piece boasts a harmonious blend of muted earthen tones—taupe, sand, beige, and faded gray—layered in a symphony of botanical motifs and intricate floral flourishes.
The rug’s central field is richly decorated with a tapestry of scrolling vines, palmettes, and rosettes, seamlessly integrated into a mirrored lattice structure that enhances both symmetry and visual flow. Delicate serrated leaves and stylized florals appear to bloom across the surface, suggestive of natural abundance and the influence of Persian garden aesthetics, so integral to classical Hereke compositions.
A series of ornate borders enframe the central tableau, the main border showcasing cartouche-like medallions flanked by rosettes and linked by sinuous arabesques, all woven with exceptional precision. These frame-like enclosures balance the more dynamic interior with a sense of containment and order, a hallmark of elite Ottoman rug design. This rug reflects the high knot density and meticulous hand-knotting for which Hereke is renowned.
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.
