Antique Persian Gashgai Rug, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa 1920 — Handwoven by the Persian Ghashgai / Qashqai rug weaving nomad artisans in the Fars province of Iran, this stunning Ghasghai carpet is a peerless work of art. The piece begins with a series of borders, each rendered in shades of deep brown, cream, orange and red rug color. These frame a bright field of cream overlaid with fascinating floral geometry. Another frame follows, its richly hued abstract pattern circling the stunning core of the piece. A warm chocolate background contrasts magnificently with the bold crimson symmetry and stunning geometrical medallions. Complex, strict, and utterly striking, the bold geometry, flawless symmetry, and strict artistry of this vivid work ensure an impactful statement piece.
