About the Item

78515 Vintage Turkish Silk Hereke Rug, 01'06 x 02'05. A sublime expression of rarity and refinement, this vintage hand-knotted Turkish silk Hereke rug offers an immersive experience in luxury—where symbolism, prestige, and artistry converge in perfect harmony. At its heart lies a finely drawn cusped medallion, layered in concentric grandeur. The very center glows with an eight-pointed star, symbolizing cosmic order and regeneration, gently cradling a delicate rosette within. This celestial form rests atop a mesmerizing lattice of smaller rosettes, all encircled by a pistachio green garland wreath, a timeless emblem of victory and eternity. Anchoring the composition, lotus blossoms bloom at either pole, their sacred form echoing spiritual awakening and transcendent beauty. The ivory silk field radiates purity and grace, a sanctuary alive with symbolic opulence. In each quadrant, a majestic phoenix emerges, its sweeping wings poised mid-ascent—guardians of rebirth and eternal fire. These mythical birds, once reserved for imperial iconography, embody status and transformation, offering a narrative of resilience and divine favor. Blossoming florals and finely rendered foliage surround them, as if spring itself has been woven into the fabric of this precious piece. A golden garland wreath delicately outlines the field, creating an aura of gilded serenity that elevates the composition to one of ceremonial magnificence. In each corner, ruby red spandrels bloom with dense rosette clusters, echoing the floral rhythm of the central medallion and reinforcing the theme of continuity. Encircling the entire work is a border as regal as it is enchanting—a luxuriant procession of phoenixes, roses, and leafy scrollwork, drawn with the finesse of courtly miniatures. This poetic frame is flanked by dual floral meander guard bands, completing the composition with a sense of eternal motion, elegance, and mastery. This rug is not merely a textile—it is a bespoke emblem of distinction, crafted to whisper tales of power, purity, and protection. For the connoisseur who seeks more than beauty—for one who values legacy, symbolism, and social good—this Hereke masterpiece offers a one-of-a-kind opportunity to own a woven relic of cultural prestige. In its shimmering silk lies the soul of an empire, the spirit of the phoenix, and the timeless truth that greatness is not just seen—it is felt beneath your feet. Abrash. Hand knotted silk on silk. Made in Turkey. Measures: 01'06 x 02'05. Date: 1960's. Mid-20th Century.
