Regular price $1,900.00

This is an old village rug, hand knotted by tribal weavers of Shiraz, which happens to be home to the famous Qashqai tribe.

This circa 1900 rug has a tribal elements surrounding a navy blue field of paisley design and it has a low wool pile set on a wool foundation with moody color ways. The top and bottom feature wonderful flat weave finish, a different weaving technique vs the piled field. The wool here is naturally dyed with vegetables, roots and plants sources and the rug has a beautiful, floppy handle. Please see pics for full character and condition as it has a small area rewoven along its side border and a tiny area that has been mended.
