This antique Persian tribal Qashqai kilim rug originates from South West Persia and dates to the year 1900. Woven from wool with some white cotton elements, the flatweave textile displays a bold geometric eye dazzler design featuring large concentric diamond medallions and prominent chevron patterns. Natural dye colours throughout comprise terracotta red, indigo blue, cream, and brown, complemented by a detailed checkered border motif. The piece exhibits very slight wear reflecting its antique status, alongside hand-washed cleanliness. Measuring 238 cm high, 152 cm wide, and 1 cm deep, the flatweave rug provides practical floor coverage for living rooms, studies, or bedrooms within a bohemian or traditional interior scheme. Placed on a floor surface, the textile functions as a floor covering underfoot or as a decorative wall hanging.

FAQs

Qashqai kilims originated from the nomadic Qashqai tribes of Fars province in southwestern Iran. Traditionally woven by women on portable looms, these flatweave carpets were crafted for practical tribal use, including floor coverings, bedding bags, and tent dividers, featuring distinct geometric motifs passed down through generations.

Authentic Qashqai kilims are constructed primarily from hand-spun sheeps wool using the slit-weave tapestry technique. The weavers employed natural vegetable and mineral dyes to produce rich shades of indigo, terracotta red, madder, and ochre.

Authenticity can be determined by examining the slight variations in hand-spun yarn, the presence of natural dye abrash (colour striations), and flexible wool warps. Late 19th and early 20th-century examples display central diamond medallions, eye-dazzler chevrons, and characteristic end-finishing styles unique to the Qashqai confederation.

Interior designers frequently use antique kilims to add texture and geometric pattern to neutral rooms. They work exceptionally well layered over plain sisal or jute carpets, anchoring seating areas in eclectic, mid-century modern, or traditional country house interiors.

Routine maintenance requires gentle vacuuming without a rotating beater bar to protect the warp threads. Use a high-quality rug pad underneath to prevent slipping and wear, rotate periodically to ensure even sun exposure, and consult a specialist rug restorer for professional dry cleaning.
