An Authentic Antique Kaskai (Qashqai) Tribal Rug
Hand-knotted nearly 90 years ago by nomadic artisans, this antique Kaskai rug reflects the rich weaving traditions of Persian tribal culture. Known for their expressive geometry and earthy palettes, Qashqai rugs are prized for their artistry, symbolism, and enduring craftsmanship.
Compact yet impactful, this piece works beautifully in entryways, studies, bedside settings, or layered within larger spaces to add depth and texture.
Design & Color Story
The rug features a traditional allover geometric pattern arranged in a rhythmic, balanced composition. The motifs create movement and visual interest while maintaining a grounded, architectural feel.
A deep brown field anchors the design, complemented by rich blue elements that add contrast and dimension. Soft ivory accents lighten the composition and highlight the intricacy of the pattern. Dyed with natural vegetable pigments, the colors have mellowed gracefully over time, creating subtle tonal variation and a warm antique patina.
