About the Item

Beautiful 19th Century Persian Qashqai Gallery/Corridor rug. As a testament to the masterful craftsmanship of the nomadic Qashqai tribes of Western Persia, this rug is truly one of a kind due to its unusual size. The Qashqai, renowned for weaving on small horizontal looms, seldom created rugs of this scale, suggesting it may have been a special commission for a tribal leader. This stunning runner is a vibrant tapestry of tribal tradition and artistic expression. The main field is a deep, elegant navy blue, providing a striking background for a prominent central medallion. The corners feature a beautiful paisley pattern set against a warm cream backdrop, creating a captivating contrast and a harmonious design. The intricate motifs are woven in a rich palette of ivory, royal blue, yellow, and green, showcasing the weaver's artistic skill and the use of natural dyes. This Qashqai rug is more than a furnishing; it is an objet d'art—a tangible link to the nomadic lifestyle of a tribe that has maintained its tradition of seasonal migrations between highland and lowland pastures for centuries. This rug is an ideal choice for a gallery or corridor, or as a striking piece of wall art, where its rich narrative and beauty can be fully appreciated.
