This stunning semi-antique Qashqai rug is a true work of art, featuring intricate motifs woven with remarkable precision. The elegant combination of baby blue and yellow hues adds a unique charm, making it a standout piece for any interior.
One of its most distinctive features is the highly unusual border design, consisting of squares within squares. Each of the four squares contains a protective “S” motif, a symbol of good fortune and protection in tribal weaving traditions.
At the heart of the rug, the central medallion is surrounded by concentric motifs, creating a sense of harmony and balance. However, the blue corner sections break this symmetry with randomly scattered motifs, adding an eye-catching contrast to the more structured design of the field and border.
The craftsmanship in this rug is extraordinary—every tiny detail has been carefully woven with exceptional precision. The weaver’s dedication is evident in the delicate and intricate patterns, showcasing the highest level of skill.
Made from premium-quality wool, this rug is exceptionally soft, lustrous, and durable. The high knot count ensures outstanding durability, making it not only a collector’s piece but also a practical and luxurious addition to any home.
A true treasure of Qashqai artistry, this rug is a rare find that will bring warmth, history, and sophistication to any space.
