Hereke, Silk, 1950s
Crafted by hand with high quality silk threads, this Hereke rug's origin traces back to the late 1950s.
Hereke rugs emerged in the Ottoman Empire when Sultan Abdulmejid I initiated their production in 1841 for his palace, employing the era's leading weavers. These luxurious rugs were produced exclusively for the palace until the late 19th century, when they became commercially available. Production was limited post-Ottoman era but revived in the mid-20th century.
The rug features a classic 'mihrab' design, which is often found in prayer rugs, inviting reflection and serenity. The central field is adorned with a flourishing tree of life, a symbolic motif representing eternal life and prosperity.
