Vintage Qashqai Rug 193x128cm

This vintage Qashqai rug from the tribes of South Iran is full of personality, storytelling, and rich tribal symbolism. A genuinely fun and engaging piece, it celebrates the vibrant, free-spirited nature of nomadic weaving traditions—where imagination and heritage meet on the loom.

At its centre is a cream medallion, elegantly placed on a deep red ground, which is richly adorned with an array of stylised flower heads and an enchanting collection of tribal animal motifs, including peacocks, rams, and dogs. These motifs not only add decorative charm but also carry deep symbolic meanings, often representing strength, loyalty, beauty, and tribal identity.

The composition is framed by multiple narrow borders, providing balance and structure while allowing the dynamic central field to shine. While the pile is low in some areas, the rug remains in very good overall condition, and the wear adds to its vintage character and authenticity.

This piece is perfect for those who appreciate rugs with soul, spontaneity, and visual storytelling. It’s ideal for living rooms, reading nooks, eclectic interiors, or even wall display.
