FAQs

Authentic Kashgai carpets are hand-knotted by nomadic tribes in south-west Persia, traditionally featuring geometric medallion patterns, stepped motifs, and a rich palette derived from natural dyes.

These carpets are characterised by hand-spun wool piles knotted onto wool or sometimes cotton foundations, utilizing symmetrical or asymmetrical knots depending on the specific tribal sub-group.

Identification involves examining the irregularity of the weave, natural abrash colour variations in the wool, the presence of wool warps and wefts, and traditional nomadic motifs such as birds, quadrupeds, and stylized flora.

An antique tribal carpet adds texture and warmth to contemporary or minimalist spaces, working effectively as a grounding anchor in living rooms or dining areas when paired with neutral furniture.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, professional washing by a specialist in antique textiles every few years, and avoiding direct, prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight.
