Vintage Kashkooli / Qashqai - Tribal Persian Rug - Repeating Boteh / Vase Design

About the Item

Unique, Vintage Persian Kashkooli Rug 7' x 11' Immaculate mid 20th century tribal Persian rug woven by the Kashkoolis of the Qashqais. This tribe is one of the most recognized subtribes that have branched off the ancient nomadic Qashqai tribe. These weavers have pioneered many designs that are seen to day in many different rug weaving cultures around the world. Kashkooli weavers are known for creating unique and stylish pieces with incredible, lasting quality. This piece is pretty large compared to most examples from tribes such as this, so it is assumed this piece was probably made for someone of importance within the tribe. Examples of these weavers are highly sought after by collectors and this unique design and size certainly makes it no exception. Comprised of wool that was raised, sheared, dyed, and expertly woven by one of the most masterful rug weaving tribes in the world. Unlike a lot of nomadic weavers, the Kashkoolis utilize cotton for the foundation of there rugs. Sturdy cotton threads and the unique weaving style of this tribe make these pieces incredibly durable and easily recognizable from the back by discerning collectors. This piece is both gorgeous and unique in design. Nomadic rugs often are colorful and full of whimsy, but rarely feature all over designs such as this. This repeating vase design, or boteh in Farsi, is used throughout rug weaving cultures in the area, but something about the simplified tribal approach gives it some additional charm. This simplified design is complimented by its contrasting color scheme of cream, maroon, orange, purple and black. The clever use of these colors allow all the details in this wonderful piece to shine through with clarity. Birds accompany the floral elements to further pay homage to the beauty and joy in nature. This bold yet elegant design will show well on any floor and its tribal feel allows it to blend with any decor. Despite being over 70 years of age this piece is in incredible condition. The pile is soft and even, the cream base is free of color bleeding or stains. Truly this piece's excellent condition is a testament to the craftsmanship and quality of these wonderful works of art. This piece, like the rest of our collection, was hand-picked by Persian Rug expert and Shiraz native, Jason Dadras. Each piece was aqquired through the relationships he forged around the world. Our rugs are ethically sourced and have been legally imported.
