About the Item
Antique Turkish Hereke Rug
Size: 11'5" x 16'5" (348 x 500 cm)
This exceptional antique Hereke rug, woven circa 1920 in the storied Ottoman town of Hereke, exemplifies imperial-level craftsmanship, elegance, and technical virtuosity. Lavishly detailed and harmoniously composed, the rug stands as a testament to the sophisticated artistry perfected in the renowned imperial workshops that once supplied the Ottoman palaces.
The rich crimson field is densely adorned with an all-over palmette and arabesque botanical pattern, executed with extraordinary precision and rhythm. Large-scale symmetrical floral forms are interlaced with swirling vine-scrolls and stylized acanthus leaves, creating a sense of luxurious movement and grandeur. The luminous palette—featuring warm shades of brick red, golden saffron, celadon, teal blue, and soft black—adds depth and warmth to the intricate design.
The elaborate royal blue border, framed by narrow guard bands, showcases a procession of rosettes and lotus motifs, rendered in coral, ivory, and soft green, enclosing the composition in stately refinement.
The Hereke weaving tradition was established in the mid-19th century by Sultan Abdülmecid I and continued producing royal-quality carpets well into the early 20th century. This 1920s example upholds that legacy with its courtly proportions, palatial design, and impeccable execution. Rugs of this caliber were reserved for ceremonial halls, diplomatic gifts, or elite clientele of the Ottoman Empire.
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.
