This vintage Qashqai runner features a thick pile and showcases five traditional Qashqai medallions arranged lengthwise, creating a striking contrast between light and dark.
The red field is filled with intricate motifs, including butterflies, two-headed animals, peacocks, flowers, leaves, birds, stars, protective “s” symbols, and abstract geometric patterns.
In contrast to the vibrant and lively main field, the border has a more formal, structured design that adds balance to the overall composition.
