This gorgeous antique Persian Qashqai fragment rug is a powerful expression of nomadic artistry, rich with symbolism and time-softened beauty. Woven by Qashqai tribes of southern Iran, the fragment reveals a dynamic diagonal composition filled with tribal motifs, stylised floral forms, and geometric medallions that speak to a deeply rooted weaving tradition passed down through generations. The field is alive with saturated yet mellowed tones of brick red, indigo blue, soft teal, and earthy brown, all beautifully abrash with age.

The remaining borders display bold, rhythmic patterns and protective symbols that frame the fragment with strength and character. Visible wear, gentle fading, and irregularities are not flaws but hallmarks of its authenticity, offering a tactile connection to its long journey through time. Striking and soulful, this antique Qashqai fragment is an exceptional decorative textile perfect for collectors, wall display, or as a statement accent that celebrates the raw beauty of Persian nomadic weaving.
