About This Kashkouli
Where it comes from
This is a Kashkuli, also written Kashkouli, the finest branch of Qashqai tribal weaving, knotted by the nomadic flocks of southern Iran. At 324 x 250 cm (10'8" x 8'2"), it takes its name from a respected Qashqai clan and is known among tribal work for unusually fine knotting and a design sense elevated enough to be called collector's tribal work, most often carried through finely drawn medallions.
What you see
Here that refinement goes somewhere else. Warm terracotta and pale apricot-beige hold the field, arranged as irregular zones rather than one field within a border. One section reads almost as checkerboard texture, another as plain striated ridges catching light in a single direction, a third scattered with small rust-coloured dots across the beige ground, like pebbles across sand. Jagged, stepped diagonals divide these zones in place of any medallion, closed only by a narrow tan-beige frame.
How it was made
The wool is hand-spun, not machine-spun, so its thickness and twist vary slightly along the yarn - this gives the surface its shifting character, catching light as ridges in one zone and lying flatter in another. At 128,000 to 160,000 knots per square metre, the knotting is unusually fine for a tribal loom, closer to density normally seen from settled workshops, and this fineness keeps the scattered dots and stepped diagonals crisp rather than blurred.
At home
A rug this size suits a dining table or a living-room seating group. The terracotta and apricot-beige warm a pale floor and hold their own against dark wood. Underfoot the pile is dense and firm, built for daily use. Cross the room and the striated section catches the light differently with each step, so the rug never settles into one flat impression.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 324 × 250 cm (8.10 m²) this is a very large rug. It carries a whole seating group with every furniture leg on it, or a dining table with the chairs pushed back. In a small room it becomes the floor rather than a rug.
Is this rug hand-knotted?
Yes, knotted by hand — knot by knot on a loom, not machine-made. The density is 128,000 to 160,000 knots per square metre; across 8.10 m² that is roughly 1.0 to 1.3 million individual knots, every one of them tied by hand.
How do I care for this rug?
Hand-spun wool still carries its own lanolin, which keeps liquid sitting on the surface for a moment: blot quickly, with clear water and a light cloth, working inwards and without rubbing. Otherwise regular vacuuming along the pile is enough. Turn the rug once or twice a year so light and footfall reach it evenly.
