The tradition was promoted by the art-loving Sultan Abd-ul-Medjid (reigned 1839 - 1861). In 1844, he had the court knotting workshops moved from Cairo back to Hereke. Hand-knotted \u003cb\u003eHereke silk rugs\u003c\/b\u003e are among the finest rugs in the world and are knotted with a density of up to 6 million knots per square meter. Thanks to the knotting technique, the pattern is just as clearly visible on the back as on the front. Antique Turkish rugs fetch top prices in renowned art auction houses.\n\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cbr\/\u003e\nTypical motifs of the \u003cb\u003eHereke rugs\u003c\/b\u003e include flowers, twigs and leaves, as well as birds, the tree of life and the so-called \u003cb\u003eMehrab or Mihrab pattern\u003c\/b\u003e, a prayer niche depicted together with oil lamps. Besides traditional motifs and typical Ottoman or Turkish patterns, Hereke silk rugs are today knotted with more modern patterns to suit contemporary tastes. The characteristic colors of \u003cb\u003eHereke silk rugs\u003c\/b\u003e are deep dark blue, bright red, vivid green, bright yellow and various natural tones in all nuances.  This old Hereke is \u003cb\u003e more than 40 years old\u003c\/b\u003e and a true collector's item.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cb\u003ePatterns\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e The luxuriant \u003cb\u003eflower motifs\u003c\/b\u003e of this Hereke are elegant and varied. The graceful vegetative symbols representing flowers, leaves and branches are artfully intertwined.\n\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cbr\/\u003e  The edge of the rug is decorated with an \u003cb\u003eedging (border)\u003c\/b\u003e. The border forms a beautiful contrast to the center.\n\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cbr\/\u003e The \u003cb\u003erecurring pattern\u003c\/b\u003e (so-called repeating pattern) flatters the design of the room and does not take attention away from the furniture, the decoration and architectural elements. It blends in fantastically with any surroundings and subtly complements the interior design of a room.. In this Hereke the \u003cb\u003erepeating elements\u003c\/b\u003e give way to the \u003cb\u003esymmetrical medallion\u003c\/b\u003e in the center of the panel.\n\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cbr\/\u003e  A special highlight of this Hereke is its \u003cb\u003esignature\u003c\/b\u003e. The signature documents the production in one of the most renowned weaving workshops in Hereke. The signature in Arabic characters is an expression of the individuality and noble origin of this rug.\n\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cbr\/\u003e The background of this Hereke is dark blue.  The border features dark blue, light blue and dark red. The dark red center combines the colors olive green and blue gray.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaterial\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe \u003cb\u003esilk\u003c\/b\u003e of the pile of this Hereke allows the colors forming the pattern to shine in different facets depending on the lighting. It makes this Hereke a real highlight and creates a cozy and at the same time very elegant and premium atmosphere in the room. Silk is manually extracted from the cocoons of the silk moth. Since individual silk threads are extremely long, the result is very thin yarns, which are nevertheless tear-resistant under low stress. Smaller rug knots can be made with this thin yarn, which create finer patterns. Therefore, the finest rugs in the world are hand-knotted made of pure silk. In this Hereke even the background is made of \u003cb\u003epure silk\u003c\/b\u003e. Due to the thin but durable material of the weft and warp threads, a particularly fine knotting and, therefore, a particularly fine pattern is feasible.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Zomorrodi Teppiche","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32254693212253,"sku":"18196","price":3200.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2298\/8523\/products\/18196_gesamt_2df07dd2-fb00-4d38-9699-60b0cbaf7812.jpg?v=1586906724","url":"https:\/\/www.zomorrodi-teppiche.de\/en-de\/products\/alter-hereke-aus-reiner-seide-teppich-124-x-76-18196","provider":"Zomorrodi Teppiche","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
