Pile: Wool Warp: Wool Dimensions: 242 x 147 cm (3.56 m2) Approximate Thickness: 6mm Knot Density: Approximately 160,000 knots/m2 Condition: Approximately 40-50 years old Fars Province, with Shiraz as its capital, in southern Iran, is home to various ethnic groups. Currently, almost all carpet production is focused on modern Gabbeh rugs, but in the past, a variety of carpet designs were woven depending on the region and group. By convention, carpets are categorized as Qashqai or Shiraz based on their weaving grade, but in reality, they are products woven by various groups, not just the Qashqai people. This item is a carpet woven by the Kashkuli group of the Qashqai, known for their fine weaving. In general classifications, it is called a Mehrab Goldani design, and locally it is known as Yeksaare Nazem. Old Kashkuli carpets are characterized by their thinness, and it was traditional for the weavers to trim the tied pile short with scissors. We have selected this item from the Shiraz carpet bazaar, which has no major damage repair marks and still has a rich pile. It was used or stored for a long time in the home where it was woven. It has been carefully cleaned locally before being imported. *Dimensions do not include the fringe. *Please understand that there may be slight distortions or minor imperfections due to being handmade. *Even if new, the fringe may have some fraying, stains, or marking marks.
