Hereke Gold takes its name and its drawing from Hereke, north-west Türkiye — founded 1843. A Hereke field is organised around a single medallion with quarter-medallions answering it in the corners. Gold running through the pattern, the colour that faded first in most antique carpets and is deliberately kept here.

Hereke Gold takes its name and its drawing from Hereke, north-west Türkiye — founded 1843. Hereke was built as an imperial manufactory on the Sea of Marmara to weave for the Ottoman palace, and for a century it set the standard every other Turkish workshop measured itself against. Its weavers weighted the design toward the centre and kept the borders disciplined.

How to read the pattern.

A Hereke field is organised around a single medallion with quarter-medallions answering it in the corners. Read it as a domed ceiling seen from below: the centre is the apex, the corner spandrels are the pendentives that carry it.

This colourway.

Gold running through the pattern, the colour that faded first in most antique carpets and is deliberately kept here. A second run of lilac keeps the field from settling into one note.

How it is made.

Hereke Gold is woven from soft chenille polyester with a flat, low pile that vacuums cleanly and does not shed. The base is woven cotton with a non-slip finish worked into it — no latex, no glue and no rubber crumb, which is exactly why it survives a wash cycle when a rubber-backed rug would not.

Where to put it.

It earns its place in the living room and the bedroom above all, and comes in ten sizes — eight rectangles from a 60 × 100 cm mat to a 200 × 300 cm room anchor, plus 160 cm and 200 cm rounds.

Living with it.

It goes in a domestic washing machine at 30°C — no dry cleaner, no specialist, no hire-in machine. It is robot-vacuum friendly, safe for children, and fine under pets — the pile is too short and too dense for claws to catch.

Care & washing

Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Do not bleach. Air dry flat and return to the floor only when fully dry.

The story underfoot

The idea behind Hereke Gold Traditional Washable Rug

Hereke, north-west Türkiye — founded 1843

Where the design begins

Hereke was built as an imperial manufactory on the Sea of Marmara to weave for the Ottoman palace, and for a century it set the standard every other Turkish workshop measured itself against. Its weavers weighted the design toward the centre and kept the borders disciplined.

How to read the pattern

A Hereke field is organised around a single medallion with quarter-medallions answering it in the corners. Read it as a domed ceiling seen from below: the centre is the apex, the corner spandrels are the pendentives that carry it.

Made to be lived with

Soft chenille polyester is woven into a dense, low pile on a cotton backing with a non-slip finish. It is designed for everyday vacuuming and a domestic 30°C wash.

Comment le charger : Pliez le tapis sans le serrer, placez-le seul dans le tambour et ne dépassez jamais la capacité de charge à sec indiquée. Utilisez un cycle délicat à 30 °C avec une lessive douce, remettez-le en forme puis séchez-le à plat à l’air libre. Suivez toujours l’étiquette d’entretien et la notice de la machine.

Care, without the guesswork

Wash, dry, back to the room.

Follow the sewn care label and use a drum with enough room for the rug to move freely.

  1. 01

    Vacuum first

    Lift loose grit with low suction and no aggressive beater bar.

  2. 02

    Blot the spill

    Use cool water and a clean cloth. Blot gently—never scrub the fibres.

  3. 03

    Wash at 30°C

    Load loosely, wash alone on a gentle cycle, and use mild liquid detergent.

  4. 04

    Keep it gentle

    No bleach or fabric softener; both can alter colour and reduce grip.

  5. 05

    Air dry flat

    Reshape while damp and let it dry fully before returning it to the floor.

  6. 06

    Match the dry weight

    Fold loosely and use a machine whose stated capacity is at least the rug's dry weight.

Always check the sewn care label and your machine instructions. Wash the rug alone and never exceed the machine's stated dry-load capacity.
