About the Item
This is a *Qashqai (also spelled Ghashghai or Gashgai)* tribal rug from *southwestern Iran, specifically the **Fars province* region near *Shiraz*. size is 7' x 10'
* *Tribe:* Qashqai (a nomadic tribal confederation in the Zagros Mountains, Iran)
* *Region:* Southwestern Iran — around *Shiraz*
* *Approximate type:* *Qashqai tribal Persian rug*
*Design Features*
* The dense *floral and stylized bird motifs* arranged symmetrically across the field are classic Qashqai work, though this example is unusually lush and formal for a tribal rug.
* The *medallion-less, garden-like layout* with trees, shrubs, and floral sprays suggests it may be a *“Millefleur”* or “boteh garden” design popular among settled Qashqai weavers in the 20th century.
* The *ground color* is a deep *madder red, bordered with **navy blue* and *light blue secondary borders* — typical vegetable-dyed Qashqai colors.
* The design density and fineness suggest a *higher-quality workshop piece*, possibly woven in the Shiraz region rather than purely nomadic.
---
### 🪡 *Construction*
* *Knot type:* Asymmetrical (Persian or Senneh knot)
* *Foundation:* Cotton warps and wefts (typical of later 20th-century examples)
* *Pile:* Wool, hand-spun and naturally dyed
* The reverse image (second photo) shows fine knotting, consistent with *90–140 KPSI (knots per square inch)*, which is typical of high-quality Qashqai rugs.
---
### 🕰️ *Approximate Date*
* Based on the colors, weave, and structure visible from the back: *Mid-20th century (circa 1940s–1970s)*
---
Qashqai rugs remain very collectible due to their artistry and deep natural dyes.
---
✅ *Summary*
This is a *hand-knotted Persian Qashqai tribal rug* from *southwestern Iran (Shiraz region), mid-20th century, featuring an allover **floral-garden field* on a rich red ground with blue borders — a vibrant, authentic example of southern Persian nomadic weaving tradition.
