The world-famous Qashqa'i nomads of Fars in southern Persia have been renowned for many centuries as the greatest of all the weaving tribes of the Orient, and have been frequently recognised as such by successive Persian Shahs and Mughal Emperors of India who commissioned Qashqa'i craftsmen to create some of the most magnificent Court and State Carpets known. The definitive Qashqa'i tent rug is exemplified in this superlative item, with its characteristic medallion-and-corner design and wealth of stylised and symbolic infill motifs, in which bird, flower and tree emblems are the traditional thematic devices. Flawlessly-crafted in the highly individual Qashqa'i style, with the wonderfully rich, luminous colours of the tribal dye masters shining through the glossy Fars lambswool of the first Spring clipping, this is a Persian nomadic item of unforgettable presence and lasting beauty.
