About the Item

Colorful Large Persian Antique Qashqai rug with beautiful tribal motif design, rug 17-0912, country of origin / type: Iran / Qashqai, circa 1930. The Qashgai nomads are found in the Fars province in southwest Iran. They move twice a year, between the winter pasture near the Persian Gulf and the summer pasture up in the Zagros mountains where it is much cooler. Their carpets have a typical red-brown ground color, and the patterns are tied from memory, often consisting of a centrally placed medallion, repeated in all four corners. Humans, four-legged animals, birds, trees and flowers are popular elements. Qashgai carpets consist of a hexagon or diamond with four projecting hooks inside of a hooked diamond. Some Qashgai pieces have the Hebatlu design (Hebatlu is the name of one of the one of the smaller Qashgai tribes) and it consists of a diamond shape central medallion, with smaller designs similar to the central medallion repeated in each of the four corners of the carpet. This particular piece consists of a layered central field with varying tribal shapes and designs throughout, all encompassed by a multi-tiered border of complementary design. Colors include Brown, red, green, ivory, salmon pink, yellow and burgundy. Measures: 13' x 18'7.
