Info | A charming Qashqai large rug or small carpet from the Zagros mountain range in south western Persia. The Qashqai were nomadic pastoralists, and they wove rugs during the summer months spent in the high slopes. Their rugs are full of motifs reflecting this mountain life; flowers, birds, sheep. With excellent vegetable colours and a particularly nice ‘abrash’ running through the centre of the rug. |
