Vintage Hereke Rug with Medallion Patterns

This vintage 2×3 Hereke rug is a distinguished addition to Rug & Kilim’s classic curations. Hand-knotted in silk and some metallic thread, it originates from Turkey circa 1970-1980.

Further on the Design: 

The play of silk and metallic thread lends and natural sheen that complements the colors and patterns in a fabulous way. Keen eyes will admire warm-and-cool blue and orange in the sharply drawn medallions, as well as the general meticulous detail this piece enjoys. One can’t help but admire the careful play of elements as much as the deft hand behind this classic. Connoisseurs and historians may further appreciate a resemblance to the memling gul in the field motifs.

Further on the Condition: 

This vintage Hereke rug further enjoys good condition for its provenance, and is ready for the floor.
