Step into the luxurious world of Hereke Rugs – where tradition meets incredible craftsmanship! Known for their intricate patterns and durability , Hereke rugs are crafted in two main styles: wool on cotton and silk on silk.
Wool Rugs: 3600 threads per dm² , also called "60 x 60 " quality.
Silk Rugs: 10,000 threads per dm² , known as "100 x 100 " quality.
Fun fact: The pile height for silk rugs is just 1.5-2 mm , while wool rugs go a bit thicker at 4-5 mm. Tiny but mighty!
Hereke rugs are not only geographically patented but also woven using the Turkish double knot (Gördes knot ), making them more durable than Persian rugs , which use a single knot.
If you're after detail, quality , and a splash of history , look no further. These pieces are built to last – and to impress!
