RUG INFORMATION:
Artpiece 14/14 quality square Ozipek Hereke rug in like new condition and with a truly unique design!!
This older 14/14 quality square Ozipek Hereke rug is an incredible find and something that passionate collectors of Turkish and Persian rugs look for. Not only is this Hereke Ozipek in mint condition with a stunning 14/14 quality that translates into ~1250 kpsi, it features a design that is clearly influenced by the Persian rug weaving culture of Tabriz.
Square Hereke rugs in this size are very rare and this Hereke Ozipek dates to around 1970. It was part of a private collection of rare Turkish Hereke rugs that we were fortunate enough to be able to obtain and its simply a stunning piece of art. Since the end of the Ozipek weavers association several decades ago, the pieces have become very sought after with collectors and the more unusual ones are always the most desired. If you are familiar with the designs of Hereke rugs and the Ozipek in particular, you will notice that the very dark navy blue background color, the colors in the design as well the design itself are not traditional Turkish, but are based on Persian rugs. This piece is made of such a high quality that it is designed to be displayed as an artpiece and is typically hang on walls or displayed as a decor item in a home and is virtually never walked on. As with all Hereke-Ozipek rugs, the workshops signature is also found on the rug.
