Hereke Turkey Rug 315 X 201 Cm
Turkish rug, kurk* wool, cotton warp and weft, circa 1980. Very good condition. Solid rug. Signed 'Hereke'.
Located in the Dardanelles Strait, the city of Hereke is southeast of Istanbul. The first productions began in 1843. In 1844, the Cairo factories were moved to Hereke because the Ottomans had to leave Egypt. Hereke rugs have an excellent reputation due to their finesse as well as the quality of the silk and wool. Inspired by old Ottoman rugs but also Iranian Safavid rugs such as Kashan, Tabriz or Isfahan rugs.
Beautiful composition for this splendid hereke rug in mianfarsh format, taking up a timeless classic pattern reminiscent of Tabriz rugs. A lime green medallion is inserted in an orange-brown medallion. Four corner pieces and elaborate borders frame the field of the carpet, which includes a multitude of flowers and foliage on a navy blue background.
*Kurk wool: fine lamb's wool collected by combing. Strong and durable wool.
