The Qashgai are a tribe of pastoral nomads who have roamed the Fars province of Persia for generations. With every seasonal migration, they bring their looms, their dyes, their wool, and their deep, inherited knowledge of design. A Qashgai Persian Rug is often woven outdoors, under open skies, with raw materials gathered from the land itself. Wool is hand-spun, and dyes are drawn from nature—madder root, pomegranate rind, walnut husk, and indigo leaf.
This connection to earth and sky is felt in every finished piece. The result is not only visually rich but deeply organic—resonating with the rhythms of nature and the identity of its maker.

A Qashgai Persian Rug is not just a woven object—it is a living document. Each knot is a phrase, each pattern a paragraph, and every rug an entire story told in wool, memory, and movement. It is the story of a nomadic people who have carried the art of rug-making with them across the mountains and valleys of southern Persia for centuries. With vibrant color, striking geometry, and deep symbolic meaning, every rug expresses a spirit that is both wild and refined, timeless and immediate.
At The Rug Shop, we are proud to offer a selection of authentic Qashgai Persian Rugs—each one handwoven by artisans who belong to a tradition that is as enduring as it is expressive. These are not rugs that simply fill a room. They transform it.
The Qashgai are a tribe of pastoral nomads who have roamed the Fars province of Persia for generations. With every seasonal migration, they bring their looms, their dyes, their wool, and their deep, inherited knowledge of design. A Qashgai Persian Rug is often woven outdoors, under open skies, with raw materials gathered from the land itself. Wool is hand-spun, and dyes are drawn from nature—madder root, pomegranate rind, walnut husk, and indigo leaf.
This connection to earth and sky is felt in every finished piece. The result is not only visually rich but deeply organic—resonating with the rhythms of nature and the identity of its maker.
What sets the Qashgai Persian Rug apart is its distinct artistic voice. Bold geometric medallions, stylized animals, angular florals, and tribal motifs dominate the composition, each carrying symbolic meaning passed down through generations. Though the patterns may appear improvisational, they are guided by ancestral memory—rendered without the aid of templates or mechanical planning.
The color palette is equally compelling. Rich reds, deep blues, glowing ochres, and earthy browns form a palette that feels both energetic and grounded. The dyes, all naturally sourced, age gracefully, developing a gentle patina that enhances the rug’s depth and character over time. Each rug is visually arresting, with a vibrancy that never feels overpowering.
No two Qashgai Persian Rugs are alike. Each piece is a singular creation—infused with personality, emotion, and the unmistakable mark of the hand that made it.
At The Rug Shop, we understand that a rug is more than a decorative item—it is an investment in culture, craftsmanship, and timeless beauty. Our collection of Qashgai Persian Rugs is sourced directly from trusted partners and artisan cooperatives, ensuring that every rug is genuine, ethically produced, and of the highest quality.
With an emphasis on integrity and transparency, The Rug Shop brings the world of Persian rugs to a global audience—providing detailed information, personal guidance, and a seamless online experience. Every rug is photographed, described, and shipped with the care and reverence it deserves.
The expressive nature of the Qashgai Persian Rug makes it remarkably versatile. Whether placed in a modern loft or a rustic cottage, it brings warmth, depth, and authenticity. In minimalist spaces, it serves as a dramatic focal point. In more traditional settings, it complements and enriches existing decor.
Lay a Qashgai rug beneath a coffee table and it invites conversation. Place one at the foot of a bed and it offers comfort with every morning step. Hang one on a wall and it becomes art—worthy of the same admiration given to a painting or tapestry.
And beyond design, there is something more profound—a sense of story, a grounding presence. A Qashgai Persian Rug doesn’t just decorate a room. It anchors it.
With proper care, a Qashgai Persian Rug will last for generations. As the fibers soften and the colors mellow, its beauty matures. Over time, it becomes not just a piece in the home, but a part of the home itself—an heirloom, a memory, a legacy.
At The Rug Shop, we are honored to facilitate this connection between past and present, maker and keeper. Each Qashgai rug we offer is not only a fine object, but a keeper of tradition, a bearer of culture, and a symbol of the enduring power of the handmade.
