Qashquli

A beautiful and highly characteristic Qashquli rug from southern Persia with a classic nomadic aesthetic and striking colour presence. The deep red field is dominated by a bold geometric medallion surrounded by countless protective symbols, stylised floral motifs and traditional tribal ornaments. Rich shades of blue and red create a vivid visual impact, while the fine detailing and balanced composition bring remarkable harmony to the overall design. Particularly attractive are the many small figures and symbolic elements that are typical of Qashquli weaving traditions and give the rug a strong narrative quality. The wide geometric border frames the field elegantly and enhances the timeless tribal character of the piece. High quality wool has been used throughout the entire rug, including pile, warp and weft, creating a soft handle and beautiful natural depth of colour. The rug remains completely in original condition, something especially valued among authentic nomadic rugs. Original examples with untouched structure and genuine patina continue to gain character and charm over time. Qashquli rugs belong to the finer works of the Gashgai nomads of southern Iran and combine traditional symbolism with excellent craftsmanship. Their geometric compositions, rich natural colours and expressive tribal energy have made them highly appreciated by collectors and lovers of oriental rugs for decades. A timeless one of a kind piece with genuine nomadic spirit and strong personality.
