This Persian tribal kilim rug originates from 1920 and belongs to the Qashqai tradition. Handwoven from wool, the piece presents a multicolour palette incorporating terracotta red, ochre orange, indigo blue, and ivory. The design comprises a polychrome panel layout filled with geometric stepped diamond medallions, set against a dark field and framed by sawtooth borders. Light, age-related wear marks the surface, accompanied by original secured fringes and selvedges. The rug measures 230 cm high, 159 cm wide, and 1 cm deep. Placed on the floor in a living room, hallway, or bedroom, it brings an authentic nomadic character to domestic interiors.

A Qashqai kilim is a flatwoven textile crafted by the nomadic weavers of southwestern Iran. These pieces are historically recognised for their geometric patterns, natural dyes, and durable slit-weave construction.

Traditional kilims are woven entirely from hand-spun wool for both the warp and weft threads. They are crafted using a flatweave tapestry technique, where weft threads are woven tightly over warps to create a smooth, pileless surface with distinct colour breaks.

Authentic antique kilims display natural variations in dye tone, known as abrash, due to small-batch dyeing. They feature a flat slit-weave structure with small vertical gaps between colour changes, hand-bound selvedges, and irregular geometric motifs.

A flatweave tribal rug can be placed centrally in a living area or dining space to define functional zones and introduce pattern. It works effectively over hard floors or layered above a neutral carpet to add architectural line and surface warmth.

Vacuum flatweave rugs regularly using a suction-only setting to avoid catching fibers with a rotary brush. Clean spills immediately by blotting with a dry cloth, and arrange professional cleaning by a specialist carpet restorer when required.
