An early 20th century Qashgai carpet from Fars in south west Persia. This is the only Qashgai we have seen that combines the characteristic geometric motifs with curvilinear elemen ts - an unusual and charming combination. Dark blue field with triple pole medallion in light red flanked by two pale blue medallions; ivory spandrels; all over flowers and foliage; wide pink main border of medallions; ivory and pale blue guards. Overall even wear, slight corrosion in places, small inset patch to lower end centre, a few crease marks, slight loss to ends. Thin, soft handle. Underlay recommended. This is an attractive antique carpet. Video at https://youtu.be/keASekY7HpI 285 x 202 cm Show more
