Qashqai carpets are hand-knotted floor coverings created by nomadic tribal weavers in southwestern Persia. They are recognised by their geometric patterns, vibrant natural dyes, and dense wool construction often featuring central diamond medallions.

Traditional Qashqai rugs are woven using hand-spun wool for both the pile and the foundation warp and weft threads. The wool is dyed using natural vegetable and mineral sources, such as madder root for reds and indigo for dark blues.

Authentic pieces exhibit slight asymmetrical variations in pattern and hue due to the nomadic weaving process on portable looms. They feature flexible wool foundations, fine hand-tied knots, and traditional motifs such as stylized birds and geometric flowers.

A vibrant tribal carpet acts as an anchoring element in minimalist or contemporary rooms, providing warmth and texture. It pairs well with neutral upholstery, mid-century timber furniture, and brass decorative accents.

Vacuum the carpet gently without a rotating brush bar to prevent fibre damage, and rotate it annually to ensure even wear. Professional cleaning by a specialist textile restorer is recommended every few years to maintain the wool.
