A rare square vintage Qashqai kilim from Iran.
This charming and unusual kilim stands out for its nearly square shape and its highly distinctive plant border—possibly stylized tulips. The main field features a vibrant, bright red background against which a series of Qashqai emblems appear to float effortlessly. The colours are lively and uplifting, making it an ideal piece to place under a square or round dining table.
If you’re looking for a cheerful kilim to brighten even the darkest days, this one is the perfect choice.
Material: 100% hand-spun sheep wool
Size: 222x190cms
Origin: Qashqai tribe, Iran
Date of weaving: 1990s
Turkic-speaking pastoral nomadic tribal groups began entering central and southern Iran during the eleventh and twelfth centuries. The Qashqai, as a large tribal unit, dates back at least to the early eighteenth century, when some Turkish(Turki)-speaking tribal groups in the region existed under the name Qashqai.
Qashqai kilims are best known for their boldness and freedom in the way the pattern is drawn. An aesthetically pleasing geometry, the fineness of their wool and their clear, strong colours combine to ensure their reputation as superlative examples.
