Hereke, Silk, 1980s
Description:
This 1980s Hereke silk rug is a textbook example of post-Ottoman revivalist luxury.
Created during a period when Turkey was exporting high-end textiles globally, this particular rug blends traditional court motifs with a modern sensibility in palette and execution.
Every inch is filled with meticulously rendered rosettes, carnations, saz leaves, and palmettes, all flowing in an arabesque rhythm inspired by Ottoman palace gardens and classical Persian artistry. Framed by an elaborate border of floral scrollwork, this rug brings together centuries of decorative tradition into a single, cohesive masterpiece
Whether displayed as a statement floor piece or hung as a tapestry, the warm tones of this Hereke — rich ochres, terracotta, rust, gold, cream, and subtle olive green — combined with its gently shimmering surface, create a dynamic, almost luminous presence in any space.
