Gashgai / Qashqai Rugs

Named after the Qashqa'i tribe in Persia, these nomadic rugs represent the skillful weaving styles of the tribe. Combining unique details with traditional family motifs the rugs are heavily ornamented. They often feature geometric patterns and highly developed floral designs. The colors often feature red, saffron yellow and navy. A distinguishable mark of Qashqai antique rugs is the use of flat weave.
