Quaskai Woolen, Iran. 1920’s

This beautiful antique Persian Quaskai rug, dating from circa 1920, showcases the exceptional weaving skills of the nomadic Quaskai tribe of southern Persia. Known for their strong community spirit, Quaskai women collaborate in weaving and gathering natural dyes, reflecting their deep connection to each other and the environment. The rug features vibrant colors and tribal designs inspired by nature, with rows of abstract geometric floral patterns contrasted by refined, interconnected flowers in the border. Influences from Central Asia and the Caucasus are evident, making this rug a stunning example of Quaskai artistry and tradition.
