Hand-knotted Hereke Oriental Rug in Silk, Red and Orange, 190 × 125 cm — 600,000 knots/m² · 5125

Roughly 1.5 million knots tied by hand into 2.38 m² — a Hereke rug, 190 × 125 cm. Hereke patterns are court patterns: medallions, prayer niches and dense floral grounds, worked at fine density. The stated density is 600,000-699,999 knots/sqm — well above what a decorative rug needs. 100% silk & 100% cotton. Silk carries dye deeper than wool: the colours sit darker in shadow and brighter into the light. The cotton foundation holds it flat and dimensionally stable. At 2.38 m² this is a collector’s size. Proportion 1.52:1. One of a kind: hand-knotted rugs are not made in editions, so this exact piece exists once.
