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!
