About the Item

19th Century S. Persian Ghashghaie Carpet (5'6" x 11' - 168 x 335 ) This piece exemplifies the robust, finely knotted textiles produced by the Khamseh Confederacy tribes of Southern Persia. Its rich history places it firmly within the category of antique rugs, showcasing the enduring quality of nomadic weaving traditions. The central field is dominated by a stunning, oxidized madder dye, presenting a deep, variegated coral color that provides a warm foundation for the intricate design. Contrasting accents of indigo, cream, and pale blue highlight the stepped medallions and scattered tribal symbols. Typical of Khamseh work, the design utilizes highly stylized, dense geometric motifs arranged around a series of stacked, lozenge-shaped central figures. The overall effect is one of controlled chaos, reflecting the weaver's personal interpretation of traditional iconography, including stylized animals and talismans. Rendered in durable, hand-spun wool, this narrow format makes it an ideal choice among hallway runner rugs. Its exceptional length and saturated palette ensure it will provide a sophisticated, grounding element to a transitional space while maintaining its integrity as a functional piece of textile art. This rug measures approximately 5.06ft x 11ft.
