The Hereke rug as an expression of craftsmanship
A Hereke silk rug is the proverbial "icing on the cake" of a home decor that wants to stand out from conventional furnishing styles. With its elegance, it not only serves as a decorative floor covering, but also gives your rooms a
unique characteristic flair and provides information about your
exquisite and individual style. At the same time, the value retention of Hereke rugs, whether new or traditional, should be emphasized.The Hereke unique pieces, and this is a special characteristic of these noble masterpieces, are knotted with the
symmetrical double knot. This art distinguishes them, for example, from the knotting of Persian rugs, which are often made with a single knot. Due to this knotting method, the rugs from Turkey are usually
more durable and robust than Persian specimens. The use of high quality Hereke silk for the warp, knot and weft results in the finest quality finishes
with high knot density, which you can benefit from when you buy a Hereke rug!To this day, Hereke rugs are synonymous with the
finest rug art in the world. The distinction is based on the uncompromising standards of artistic execution and superior quality, culminating in the consistent preservation of a long tradition.
Embellishing the living ambience with colorful and detailed patterns
Each region has developed its own style over centuries. Thus, the high-quality specimens are characterized by their
depiction of natural motifs and
vivid color nuance. Sand-colored cinnamon tones blend with natural yellow, green and ivory as well as vivid red to create
countless shades and motifs such as twigs, leaves and flowers, bringing them to life on every
Oriental rug. In addition to the typical floral ornaments, the
prayer niche with oil lamps and birds are among the characteristic motifs of Hereke silk rugs. As the most famous motif Hereke rug serves the
tree of life as a symbol of hope and a happy future. Hereke rugs are thus particularly suitable for lovers of
colorful and eye-catching rugs, which, for example, become an eye-catcher in a rather plainly furnished room.
