Cost new £1225.00 Dimensions 70" x 46" Lovely condition Additional Info As with numerous other nomadic tribes, the Qashqai Rugs and Qashqai carpets are woven by women. Qashqai rugs have a woollen pile, with a woollen warp and weft, and are woven on a horizontal loom pegged out on the floor. The weft thread is usually distinctive in that it is usually a shade of red.

The weave is usually fine, heavier in weight and more importantly consistent.
