This ghashghai is a real highlight. Its colours and patterns reflect the life of the Ghashghai nomads of Iran. These nomadic tribes live mainly in the neighbourhood of the city of Shiraz. Bring a piece of ancient Persian culture into your own four walls.


Village / Nomadic Rug

This rug belongs to the village and nomadic rugs from Iran, formerly Persia. This type of rug is hand-knotted in smaller towns and villages according to age-old tradition. Nomads also still knot Persian rugs in the open air. The rugs are made without a pattern and entirely from memory. They are characterised by classic ornaments arranged in straight-lined and geometric patterns. Thanks to their cultural and traditional origins, these rugs have a unique character that embodies ancient Persia.

Highest-grade Wool

Cork wool is sheep's wool from the neck area of the sheep. Wool is a natural material that brings important positive properties to everyday life. It is extremely hard-wearing and easily withstands daily stress. With proper care, it can also last for many decades without showing signs of aging. Cork wool is particularly soft and shiny because it has a higher natural fat content. Therefore, it is usually only used in high-quality rugs.

Hand-knotted

Traditionally hand-knotted rugs still represent the highest quality standard among all types of rug. Depending on the knotting technique, these rugs are extremely hard-wearing and can last for generations. The finer and denser a rug is knotted, the more detailed the ornaments and patterns that can be shown in the pile. At the same time, a very fine oriental rug requires significantly more manual work, as well as a higher level of experience and skill from the weaver. Knot density is therefore also a key factor in the value of hand-knotted rugs. However, quality is not directly linked to knot density. A more coarsely knotted rug can still be made to an excellent standard.
