About the Item
This 2016 Orley Shabahang signature carpet consists of a wool and silk pile and organic vegetable dyes. Created in Iran, in a village surrounding the city of Arak, formerly known as Sultanabad, the carpet is completed using Orley Shabahang's extremely fine Meyghan weaving technique. The wool is also of Orley Shabahang signature, derived from our own heard of Persian fat-tail sheep in Fars, Iran, and the silk from our silkworms near the Caspian. The wool is spun by hand using centuries-old techniques to preserve the high lanolin content and tensile strength of its fibers. The pile is hand-knotted, woven by an artisan weaver in her own home.
Orley Shabahang works house to house, village to village with our weavers, working to preserve the art of weaving as a cottage industry, and implementing ancient weaving methods to create the antiques of the future. This piece is from our limited series Animal Collection, and is truly one-of-a-kind. A minimalist approach to traditional Persian animal carpets, this carpet evokes the power of the lion in Persian folklore while lending itself beautifully to a modern setting. In the upper right-hand corner is the signature of Bahram Shabahang, our master weaver. The size is 3' x 5', and it is in excellent new condition.

Vintage Qashqai Animal Rug, Red, Wool, Circa 1940s, 4’ x 6’
Located in New York, NY
This Persian Qashqai carpet circa 1940 was created using a wool warp, wool weft, hand-knotted pure wool pile and natural vegetable dyes. The central lion design is rather striking in the way it contrasts the carpet's red field, as well as in its detailed facial features. In Persian folklore, the lion symbolizes kingship, prestige, and the protection of sacred spaces. Its power is beautifully conveyed by the weaver of this piece, who created this carpet for ceremonious purpose. Taking a closer look at the border, one can see Qashqai villagers dancing in celebratory robes, indicating that this was likely woven as a wedding carpet...
