Only 1 in stock
The abrushed grey field creates a soft, atmospheric backdrop, enriched by natural tonal variation that adds depth and authenticity. Set within this field are three bold medallions featuring stylised scarab beetle motifs. These forms carry long-standing symbolic meaning, often associated with protection, endurance, and renewal, giving the rug a subtle narrative quality beyond its visual appeal.
At the centre, a cream medallion provides a calm focal point, gently lifting the palette and balancing the deeper tones around it. This is framed by a rich red border that adds warmth, structure, and a clear sense of tribal identity, grounding the composition while enhancing its contrast.
Hand-knotted in wool and preserved in excellent vintage condition, this rug is both decorative and practical. Its narrow proportions make it particularly well suited for hallways, beside a bed, or layered within a curated interior. With its rare colour harmony and meaningful motifs, this Qashqai rug offers authenticity, craftsmanship, and understated elegance in equal measure.
