Shiraz rug, mid 20th century

Measurements: 188cm x 150cm (6’2 x 4’11)

35 Knots per inch

Price: £150

I am not going to pretend this is anything special, it is quite late and fairly crude which is why I call it Shiraz rather than Qashqai. However I do like to have a few more affordable piece in my collection as long as they have a look and this certainly does with its bold design and not displeasing palette. It has a lot of moth damage so might be a good project for an amateur restorer especially as the knot count is very low.

Condition:

Lots of moth damage with large sections back to the foundation.
