A late 19th-century South Persian Qashqai (Ghashgaie / Khamseh) rug, The piece measures approximately 152.5 × 213.5 cm (5'0" × 7'0"), a near-square scatter-size proportion well suited to use in seating areas, bedrooms, or layered over a larger neutral floor covering. The composition pairs a navy field with an ivory border. The Qashqai and Khamsehare major tribal confederations of southern Persia (Fars province, around Shiraz), historically producing some of the most distinctive tribal hand-knotted wool carpets of the Persian tradition, with bold geometric medallions and saturated natural-dye color palettes. The Qashgaie are Turkic, but the Khamseh are a mixture of Turks, Persians and Arabs. Hand-knotted wool. Authentic one-of-a-kind antique tribal carpet.
