Authentic Qashqai Origin: Hand-woven by Qashqai tribal weavers in the Fars region of Southwest Iran
Age: Dated to the late 19th or early 20th century (circa 1890s–1910s)
Intact Blue Kilim Skirts: Features rare, flatwoven blue end skirts with interlocking step patterns, a hallmark feature that is often worn away or removed on antique pieces.
All-Natural Vegetable Dyes: Displays rich madder reds, deep indigos, soft ivories, and natural earth tones that age gracefully without harsh modern chemical fading.
All-Wool Construction: Hand-spun wool pile built on a soft wool warp and weft foundation, offering high flexibility and traditional nomadic craftsmanship.
Versatile Dimensions: The ~7'6" x 4'8" proportion (90" x 56") is a highly versatile "dozar" size.
Minor Skirt Loss: The flatwoven blue skirt has sustained a minor tear/fray at one corner that requires professional stabilization to prevent further unraveling.
Asymmetrical Hand-Woven Geometry: Being a true tribal piece, the tension and motifs are slightly irregular.
