Of course, they are. All the other silk rugs in the world never are at these high knot density nor with so many colours knotted as those from Hereke...

- I love a fine, decorative throw rug and have had many throughout the years. But, our cats -- particularly Bandit -- have issues and have ruined too many rugs. You know, Jacksonville has a fair amount of fine Turkish rugs that it's quite impressive. I'm in awe of how artisans can hand-knot rugs with such intricate designs.
