ABOUT THIS PIECE
Abade is a small city located within the summer residence of the Qashqai Confederacy and about halfway between the major carpet producing cities of Isfahan and Shiraz.
With a reputation for producing the most finely woven Qashqai rugs, Abade carpets feature unique nomadic designs combined with the quality of craftsmanship, durability and weaving techniques often seen in high-end urban rugs.
The Qashqai nomadic rugs are unique pieces of art, handwoven through a combination of improvisation and reference to folk iconography.
Made from sustainably sourced local handspun wool and natural dyes, Qashqai nomadic rugs often depict an aerial view abstraction of the weaver’s pastoral nomadic life, featuring many animals, people and plants and fields.
This Abade Qashqai carpet features wool on cotton construction with a finely woven thick and lustrous pile.

How it sits in your room.
315 × 225 CM (10'4" × 7'5"), DRAWN TO SCALE WITH TYPICAL AUSTRALIAN FURNITURE SIZES.
A 3-seater sofa along the long side with its front legs on the rug and 48 cm of rug past each arm, a coffee table on the rug. It is not deep enough for armchairs opposite as well.
A 180 × 90 cm table with 68 cm of rug beyond its sides and 68 cm past its ends, so the chairs stay on the rug when they are pulled out.
Under the lower part of a king bed with 66 cm of rug showing on each side, so your feet land on it either side of the bed.
Measure the room, or just the area the rug should cover, and we will draw this rug in it to scale.
