Old Qashquai (326321)

The Qashquai weave several types of rugs. A characteristic product can be

recognized by its all-wool construction, heavy ribbing on the reverse, strong

deep colours (particularly the red), and the use of traditional motifs such as

the 'Hashing' or crab. Typically, the designs are geometrical with a row of

three of five medallions down the middle of the rug, or in the centre and

corners. The whole field is generally covered with small geometric motifs.

Qashqai rugs average 70 to 170 knots per square inch.
