Gooch Oriental Quashgai Rug, Red/Multi, L123 x W83 cm
Product code: 64720107
A selection of truly unique and totally individual traditional hand-knotted rugs, this range from Gooch Oriental showcases rugs created by different artisans across town and village locations across the world, including traditional Persian creations. Each piece is carefully selected by the Gooch Oriental team to ensure it's authenticity, quality and finish. Each one is knotted by hand, an intricate process using traditional hand knotting techniques. As such, no two pieces are the same, meaning you can add an authentic and unique piece of crafted design into your home, whilst supporting this heritage industry.
The Quashgai design mainly originates from South Western Persia (Iran). They are made by Nomadic tribes which move twice a year between different pastures. Each piece is unique and based around a central medallion design style, they are hand knotted freely without following a pattern and taught from generation to generation.
These rugs are usually made with 100% local wool using a mixture of both vegetable and chemical dyes.
In 1sqm of Quashqai rugs there would be around 250000 + knots giving a mid-density pile.
