About the Item

This exquisite Mid-20th century Turkish Herekeh silk rug, measuring 1'4" x 1'10", showcases the refined artistry and technical mastery for which Herekeh weaving is renowned. The design is centered around an elaborate floral medallion set against a luminous ivory field, radiating outward in finely drawn scrollwork and symmetrical floral motifs. Stylized blossoms, delicate vines, and leafy tendrils are rendered with remarkable clarity, demonstrating the precision possible only in silk weaving. The surrounding spandrels echo the medallion’s intricate detailing, creating a sense of balance and harmony across the composition. A series of finely woven guard borders encase the rug, culminating in a main border adorned with a continuous chain of rosettes and floral elements, which enhance the visual rhythm. Herekeh silk rugs are prized for their extraordinary fineness, often featuring knot counts among the highest in the world. This piece epitomizes the tradition, blending elegance, luminosity, and masterful craftsmanship into a small yet impactful decorative work of art.
