Shiraz Kilim (102304)

Shiraz gives its name to rugs, which are woven in the small villages and towns, which surround it, brought into the city to be sold. They are also made by some of the local tribes, such as the Qashquai, whose best work is moreover more finely and tightly knotted than those of Shiraz. Shiraz rugs are characterised by a deep wine-red colour. This rug is a unique piece tribal art.
