77025 Vintage Turkish
Silk Hereke Prayer Rug with Hunting Scene 03'05 x 02'09 From Esmaili Rugs
Collection. Cleverly composed and distinctively well-balanced, this vintage
Turkish silk Hereke rug displays an exceptional hunting scene. The sense of flight
is evident throughout the silk Hereke as the predators hunt their prey. A large
tree on each side surrounded by lush foliage, lavish flowers and a tranquil
river flows from the right side to the bottom of the left side. The center is
filled with exotic animals from birds, ducks and fish to deer, lions and tigers
in a plentiful landscape scene. A royal camp composed of elaborate Turkish yurt
war tents is surrounded by a Sultan and his Ottoman army. The rolling clouds,
idyllic pond and women playing music counterbalance the imperial hunt; a
past-time enjoyed by royalty. With its eccentric hunting scene and the
attention to detail, this silk Hereke tapestry is unlike any other as it allows
the viewer to continuously discover fascinating subjects. Rendered in
variegated shades of beige, cream, tan, brown, olive, sage, mint, aquamarine,
gold, gray, red, dark blue, light blue, light yellow and accent colors. Create
a room that feels well-traveled and effortlessly inviting with this vintage
silk Hereke, whether it be used as a wall hanging, tapestry or prayer rug.
