Qashqai Rug

Collecting and exporting rugs in our family goes back to mid 20th century. Our great grandfather collected new and antique Persian rugs, which were sought after by both domestic and foreign buyers. Mohammadbagher Haghnegahdar - our grandfather - took charge of the business around 1965; his contributions lead to significant growth of exports and laid the foundation for the thriving company we have today.

In the late 1980s when the evolution of gabbeh rugs took place, our family was among the pioneers who rebuilt the rug-production business from the ground up.

It used to be a very traditional business reliant upon a small number of rugs provided by village weavers at random times during the year. We commissioned weavers from all over the region and beyond to produce rugs with custom designs, using premium wool and dyes made in our factory. Our family took that small business and turned it into a booming enterprise that employed over 1000 weavers producing over 30000 square meters of rugs a year in the following decade.

It has been 20 years since we established our headquarters in Hamburg, Germany to directly address the needs of our European customers; we spent the better part of this time expanding our business globally to include South Asian productions. The bulk of our modern and contemporary rugs including all of our premium custom designs are manufactured in India and Nepal.

Qashqai Rug - 143

The Qashqai tribe – living around the city of Shiraz in Fars Province, Iran – is among major producers of Persian rugs of today. QASHQAI RUG - THE TRIBE'S MOST FAMOUS RUG – is knotted using the Persian knot, in which the weft yarn wraps around one warp and then goes under the adjacent warp before coming back up – much like the way we write the number 8 – thus the ends of the weft are divided by the second warp. The rug usually has a KPSI of about 70 to 170. The use of handspun wool yarn contributes greatly to THE QUALITY OF QASHQAI RUG, just as vegetable dyes secure the jewel-toned colors dyed in the wool. Red, blue, and ivory constitute the default color scheme of this rug
