Qashqai Rug, Circa 1890, 2.40m X 1.58m

19th century
Description

This classic Qashqai rug is woven on a woolen foundation with high quality wool pile and natural dyes. The anchor medallion in the field is centred by a dramatic geometric ornament which is then repeated in the spandrels. The rest of the field is filled with stylised floral ornaments and dramatic horses as seen on the pillars in Persepolis. Note also the colourful chevron ornaments on the sides of the field. All this is framed by classic stylised floral borders. It's a delightful composition, full of tribal character. The colours are delicious, especially a very lovely apricot and light blue. Used carefully over the generations, it has survived in generally good condition with only minor signs of wear. The ends and selvages are intact. Professionally cleaned in my workshop.

FAQs

Qashqai rugs are traditional textiles woven by nomadic tribes in the Fars province of southwestern Iran. Renowned for their rich cultural heritage, these carpets reflect tribal history through spontaneous geometric designs, symbolic motifs, and natural dyeing traditions handed down through generations.

Traditional Qashqai rugs are constructed entirely from locally sourced, hand-spun wool for both the pile and the foundation warps and wefts. The wool is dyed using natural plant and mineral sources, such as madder root for reds and indigo for blues, resulting in durable textiles with subtle colour variations.

Authentic nineteenth-century Qashqai rugs typically feature a soft, flexible wool foundation, asymmetrical knots, and complex geometric border patterns surrounding central diamond medallions. Look for natural colour abrashgradual hue shifts in the yarnand distinct tribal symbols such as stylized birds or flowers.

A tribal Persian rug serves as an anchor in neutral or contemporary interiors, providing warm tones and graphic texture underfoot. Designers often place them beneath seating arrangements, layer them over flat-weave neutral floor coverings, or use them to add historical context to modern architectural schemes.

Maintain an antique wool rug by vacuuming regularly using suction only, avoiding beater bars that can damage delicate fibers. Professional cleaning should be undertaken by a specialist in hand-knotted textiles, and the rug should be rotated periodically to ensure even wear and light exposure.
